Why Bet on Monterrey
Rayados is in a great moment. After the disappointment of the last tournament when they were eliminated in the first game of the playoffs, in this championship they are making sure that it will not be repeated, since they are second, with a good advantage, and to be among the four best will qualify them directly to the quarterfinals.
Thanks to their 6 wins, 1 draw, and only 1 loss, they are second in the tournament with 19 points and are the highest scoring team: 19. In addition, midfielder Arturo González is one of the best players in the tournament with 4 goals and 5 assists. A few days ago against León, he scored a hat-trick and gave an assist in the 5-1 win.
Coach Victor Vucetich knows the importance of this game, beyond the points, it is the emotional factor with which Monterrey will face its next games and the finals.
Why Bet on Tigres
Tigres is another of the clubs that are in an excellent moment. Along with Toluca and Monterrey, they are watching the rest of their rivals from above and it seems that they are going to qualify for the quarterfinals without any problems.
Something important for the Felines is that they come rested. While their rival on duty plays this Wednesday, they rest due to an error by the organizers. And is that by rule the teams cannot play before 72 hours after the previous game, and they did not realize that Chivas and Tigres cannot comply with that rule, so their game was postponed for September.
In addition to the fact that they always want to win the classics, the one who will be playing a separate one is the French striker André-Pierre Gignac, who with 10 goals in this classic, is only 1 behind the Brazilian Mario de Souza, a historical scorer in this match and who played for Rayados between 1984 and 1992.
