Tigres vs Pachuca Preview
This week will be decisive and exciting in Liga MX, as the teams will face each other in a double matchday, where Tigres and Pachuca will have to face each other first on Tuesday and then on Saturday in a match where both will seek the three points of victory.
Matchday 12 left both the Felinos and the Tuzos with a bitter taste after losing respectively against Rayados de Monterrey and Chivas de Guadalajara. Now, in week 13, Veljko Paunović’s team will face Mazatlán and the team from Hidalgo faces Santos Laguna.
The match is scheduled to take place this Saturday, October 26, at the Estadio Universitario – UANL, in the city of Nuevo León. It corresponds to matchday 14 of the 2024 Liga MX Apertura Tournament. It will begin at 9:00 pm (CDMX time). That same day, Pumas vs Cruz Azul will face each other in an exciting match.
This match is key for both teams, as the Felinos are still fighting for the top spots in the table and the Tigres vs Pachuca prediction favors them because they play at home and have historically dominated the Tuzos, who have not been able to click this season and are at the bottom of the table only above Querétaro and Santos.
Tigres vs Pachuca Prediction
Tigres wins the match -133
Over 2.5 goals scored -133
Both teams score -152
In another season, this match would be really close and tight, however, now we see an irregular Tuzos that throughout the tournament has not achieved more than 9 points, that leaves them at the bottom of the table and with a completely opposite reality compared to the Felinos who are about to get the difference over the second place in the table.
That being said, our first Tigres vs Pachuca prediction is for the moneyline market , a simple bet, where the objective is to predict which of the two teams will win the match. For this market, Novibet’s odds have one favorite: Tigres UANL .
The odds for a Tigres victory are -133 with a 54% chance of winning . On the other hand, a victory for Pachuca has odds of +380 and the team is the underdog with only a 20% chance of winning . In fact, a draw has more chances with 26% and odds of +255.
