On April 6, 2025, at the Miguel Hidalgo Stadium in Pachuca de Soto, the 14th round of the Mexican Liga MX will see Pachuca face off against America. I suggest a bet with a handicap on one of the teams.
Pachuca
After 13 matches, Pachuca sits in 7th place, trailing the league leader, Club America, by 9 points. They are only 3 points away from the 6th position, which grants direct playoff qualification without the need for a qualifier.
Until recently, Pachuca maintained a 4-match unbeaten streak, but in the last round, they lost away to Toluca in a hard-fought battle – 2-3. As for the team's home form, it remains stable: in 7 matches, Pachuca has collected 14 points, suffering only one defeat – a 1-2 loss to Leon.
America
With 4 rounds remaining in the main stage, America retains the league lead with 30 points, 3 points ahead of their nearest rival, Toluca. The team boasts the best defense in the championship, conceding only 8 goals in 13 matches. Notably, America has conceded just 3 goals on the road.
Before the match against Pachuca, the tournament leader is in excellent form, unbeaten in 5 games. In the last three rounds of Liga MX, the team has secured victories, scoring 10 goals and conceding only once.
Three days after the showdown with Pachuca, America will face Cruz Azul in the second leg of the CONCACAF Champions League quarter-finals – another representative of Liga MX. The first game on America's home turf ended in a goalless draw, which means the team can't afford to relax ahead of the return match. Andre Jardine might opt for squad rotation in the league match to approach the crucial Champions League game in optimal form.
Probable Lineups
- Pachuca: Moreno, Rodriguez, Eduardo Bauermann, Aceves, Gonzalez, Gomenchenko, Montil, Gonzalez, John Kennedy, Hernandez, Rondon
- America: Malagon, Alvarez, Reyes, Juarez, Calderon, Sanchez, Cervantes, Zendejas, Figaldo, Rodriguez, Aguirre
Match Facts and H2H
- At home, Pachuca failed to score in only one match this season.
- The "both teams to score" bet played out in five of Pachuca's last matches.
- America is the best team in the league in terms of points gained in away matches. In 6 away games, the club has earned 16 points, securing 5 wins and drawing once.
- In the last 5 head-to-head clashes at Pachuca's ground, America has only one victory, with the clubs drawing once and three matches ending in favor of the hosts.
Prediction
For Pachuca, this match holds more tournament significance. Additionally, potential squad rotation from America could play into Pachuca's hands. In this scenario, it's logical to bet on the hosts not losing.
