The Pachuca vs Cruz Azul match will be broadcast live online and on TV as Los Tuzos host Los Cementeros at the Estadio Hidalgo this Saturday, September 29, 2018, at 5:00 PM Pacific.
Pachuca has been a very inconsistent team this season and is currently sitting in 13th place with 12 points after 10 games played. Los Tuzos are coming off a rough 1-0 loss against Club Tijuana away from home, where Franco Jara and Stiven Barreiro were dealt red cards and will now be unavailable for this encounter.
Pako Ayestaran still has plenty of talented players like Victor Guzman, Leonardo Ulloa and Angelo Sagal, but it is unclear if they will work together to try and defeat a team like Cruz Azul.
La Maquina has arguably been the best team this season, currently in first place with 23 points and only one loss so far. Cruz Azul is coming off a dominant 2-0 victory against Atlas at the Estadio Azteca and also advanced to the quarterfinals of the Copa MX by taking down Club Tijuana away from home earlier this week.
Los Celestes have the best defense in the league with just five goals allowed so far and should be tough to break down against Pachuca’s inconsistent attack. Milton Caraglio and Elias Hernandez currently top the team with four goals each, but contributions have come all around the squad in front of net.
Pachuca vs Cruz Azul Prediction
Cruz Azul has the much better team and is in much better form and should walk away with the three points despite playing away from home. FutnSoccer predicts a 2-1 win for Pedro Caixinha’s side in what should be a thrilling clash at the Estadio Hidalgo.
