Veracruz Cruz Azul betting prediction

The away team is currently in the 14^th position of the league, with 10 points won, after 6 wins, 11 draws and 10 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Chiapas, by (2‑0). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Tigres UANL, by (0‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 1 point in away matches and 9 points at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 21 goals conceded at home, against 10 goals scored and 12 conceded in away matches. In the last 10 away league matches Cruz Azul has a record of 1 win, 5 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 8 points out of 30 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 7 away matches. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (6 out of 12 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 9 of the last 12 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 27 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 14 times and have only turned the score around in 2.

Cruz Azul, like its opponent, is not well in the Mexican league, and is also at the bottom of the table, and if they want to improve their situation it is important to score points, even more away from home. Against Veracruz there is a tendency for a game with chances for both sides, so they know they can win a positive result, so they hope they will not make any mistakes to leave the field with at least a draw. For this match Coach Paco Jémez should not have absences due to injury or expulsion.

Confirmed Lineup: Jesús Corona, Omar Mendoza, Adrián Aldrete, Julián Velázquez, Enzo Roco, Rafael Baca, Gabriel Peñalba, Martín Rodríguez, Ángel Mena, Jorge Benitez.
