The Cruz Azul vs Santos Laguna match will be broadcast live online and on TV as Los Cementeros host Los Guerreros at the Estadio Azteca this Saturday, February 16, 2019, at 3:00 PM Pacific
Cruz Azul is off to a terrible start this season, currently in 12th place with eight points after being one of the best teams last season. Los Celestes are winless in their last two games and are coming off a 1-1 draw against Toluca away from home, where Orbelin Pineda helped salvage the point.
The Mexico City team’s biggest problem in this 2019 Clausura has been the inconsistent offense as no striker is yet to score a goal. Martin Cauteruccio has been playing in most games this season, but it may be time to seek other options like Milton Caraglio.
Santos Laguna is also off to a slow start, currently in 11th place with eight points, coming off a 1-1 draw at home against Club Tijuana. The team still seems to be struggling without Osvaldo Martinez and Jonathan Rodriguez as the players that have been brought in have not been suitable replacements.
Centre-back Matheus Doria will be back from injury in this match, but it seems like striker Julio Furch could miss this game due to muscular problems. If Furch is to miss this game, players like Javier Correa, Brian Lozano and Ayrton Preciado will need to step it up in the attack.
Cruz Azul vs Santos Laguna Prediction
FutnSoccer predicts a 2-1 win for Cruz Azul as it should prove to be a hard-fought clash, but the home-field advantage should help out Los Cementeros.
