The Puebla vs Cruz Azul match will be broadcast live online and on TV as La Franja hosts La Maquina at the Estadio Cuauhtemoc this Friday, January 4, 2019, at 7:00 PM Pacific.

Puebla just missed out on the playoffs in the 2018 Apertura season and will try to sneak into the top eight this season with an improved roster. La Franja did not lose any key players in this transfer window and added players like Matias Alustiza and Gerardo Rodriguez that can improve the team.

Fullback Brayan Angulo is not expected to be back from injury until at least April and Rodriguez is a solid replacement in the left-back role. Alustiza is a very experienced forward that is a historic goalscorer for Puebla and will look to gel the attack together alongside Lucas Cavallini.

Cruz Azul were the runners-up of the 2018 Apertura tournament and will be motivated to get redemption after falling to archrivals Club America in the final. La Maquina was very active in the transfer window and added Jonathan Rodriguez, Orbelin Pineda and Yoshimar Yotun.

Los Cementeros also did not lose any players that were instrumental last season and will now be looking for a positive start to the 2019 Clausura. Pedro Caixinha’s team is very well-balanced, but the defense stands out as it only allowed 13 goals in the 2018 Apertura tournament.

Puebla vs Cruz Azul Prediction

The game should be a very competitive and intense affair to start off the 2019 Clausura season. Puebla tends to play very well at home and could make this a very tough opening match for Cruz Azul. FutnSoccer predicts a hard-fought and intense duel at the Estadio Cuauhtemoc that ends in a 1-1 draw.
