The Cruz Azul vs Necaxa match will be broadcast live online and on TV as Los Cementeros host Los Rayos at the Estadio Azteca this Saturday, March 2, 2019, at 3:00 PM Pacific.
Cruz Azul is currently in crisis mode, currently in 14th place with just nine points as manager Pedro Caixinha is in hot water. Los Celestes did lose midfielder Ivan Marcone in the transfer window, but did add several players during the window as well, making this run of form inexcusable.
The Mexico City team is clearly distracted with off-the-field issues as Pedro Caixnha makes controversial comments and the press gives heavy criticism to the team. Cruz Azul is still a very talented team, but must find ways to be more effective offensively as all strikers on the team have only combined for one goal scored.
Necaxa has had a surprising season so far, currently in ninth place with 11 points, but is now winless in its last three games. The team from Aguascalientes is coming off a 2-1 loss to Club Tijuana at home and does not seem to have enough quality or depth to stay competitive.
The saving grace of the team is Argentine forward Brian Fernandez, who has had a monstrous season so far with seven goals and two assists. The offense works around Fernandez, but the defense can be highly inconsistent and is definitely the weak point of Guillermo Vazquez’s side.
Cruz Azul vs Necaxa Prediction
FutnSoccer predicts a 1-1 draw the Estadio Azteca between both teams as neither team is currently in good form and that should show on the pitch.
