Pachuca is currently out of a playoff spot in the Liga MX, but has had a very respectable performance in the Copa MX so far. Los Tuzos defeated Cafetaleros de Tapachula 3-0 in the round of 16 and Tigres UANL on penalties in the quarterfinals to get to this semifinal stage.
Argentine striker Franco Jara scored two goals past Tigres UANL and has been a key player for Pachuca in the Copa MX with four total goals in the tournament. Other players that may feature in this match for Pako Ayestaran include the likes of Oscar “Conejo” Perez, Stiven Barreiro and team captain Jorge Hernandez.
Monterrey has been one of the best teams in the Liga MX and finished as the third-best team in the Copa MX group stages. Rayados defeated Zacatepec 4-2 in the round of 16 and Queretaro 1-0 in the quarterfinals and are now the favorites in this matchup.
Diego Alonso has been using an alternate lineup in the Copa MX, but will use some key players due to all the injuries the team currently has. One of the key players to watch will be the 19-year-old midfielder Daniel Lajud, who just scored his first-career Liga MX goal against Toluca this past weekend.
Pachuca vs Monterrey Prediction
FutnSoccer predicts a 3-2 win for Monterrey, both teams should use alternate squads, both teams are talented, but should be exposed in the defense, which should make for a high-scoring clash.
