The Monterrey vs Monarcas Morelia Liga MX match will be broadcast live online and on TV as Los Rayados host La Monarquia at the Estadio BBVA Bancomer this Saturday, January 18, at 3:00 PM Pacific.
Monterrey is the current Liga MX champions, but did not have any activity in Week 1 of the competition. Los Rayados have not been very active in the current transfer window even with rumors surging that players like Rodolfo Pizarro and Dorlan Pabon may leave the club.
The champions did bring in Ivorian striker Ake Loba to the team recently as Colombian forward Aviles Hurtado is set to miss the season with an injury. Monterrey has one of the strongest teams in the Liga MX and it will be very interesting to see Vincent Janssen and Rogelio Funes Mori compete for playing time throughout the semester.
Monarcas Morelia had a very surprising 2019 Apertura campaign, making it all the way to the semifinals of the competition. However, the team from Michoacan had a lackluster start to the new campaign with a 1-0 loss to Toluca at home.
Manager Pablo Guede did not start any of the new signings in that match and it will be interesting to see if Martin Rodriguez, Jorge Valdivia or any of the new players get playing time. Venezuelan striker Fernando Aristeguieta was also benched for that inaugural match and could get the start over Miguel Angel Sansores, who struggled against Toluca.
Monterrey vs Monarcas Morelia Prediction
FutnSoccer predicts a 2-1 win for Monterrey in this match as Los Rayados have the much better squad and will also count with the home-field advantage.
