Cruz Azul to Win

Our first Cruz Azul vs Atletico San Luis prediction is in favor of the home team but the head-to-head advantage is only slightly in coach Ricardo Ferretti’s side’s favor. Three games ended with Cruz Azul victories, in two games the teams shared the spoils, and Atletico San Luis snatched the full set of points twice.

That being said, we have to remind you that while Atletico San Luis have only one victory in their last five Clausura showdowns, Cruz Azul really stepped up their game and we now see Ricardo Ferretti’s boys with four victories in the last five fixtures.

Over 2.5 Goals

Do we even have to remind you of the brutal 7-0 beating that Cruz Azul took against Club America earlier this season? Our key Cruz Azul vs Atletico San Luis prediction is entirely in favor of an interesting clash at Estadio Azteca as neither side can brag about a particularly airtight defensive line this season.

After all, Cruz Azul may have only 13 goals conceded but the 7-0 wound is still fresh and coach Ricardo Ferretti’s boys might break at any point. The head-to-head data is certainly on our side. The two teams played a total of seven games against each other. Four of them ended with over 2.5 goals and three had two or fewer.

Cruz Azul vs Atletico San Luis Lineups & Team News

Cruz Azul

We told you about this in the previous Cruz Azul vs Atletico San Luis predictions but we can’t stress enough how well Cruz Azul have been performing these days. With four victories and only one loss in the last five league games, coach Ricardo Ferretti certainly transformed this team from an ugly duckling to a gracious swan.

Predicted lineup – Corona (GK), Rivero, Escobar, Funes, Dominguez, Rodriguez, Lira, Carrera, Antuna, Lotti & Rotondi

Atletico San Luis

An Atletico San Luis win was long overdue and coach Andre Jardine’s boys dully delivered on matchday 11. The 2-0 win against Queretaro was far from impressive but it was certainly something for the fans to cheer on. Something that they don’t frequently do these days.

Player to Watch: Jesus Corona

Cruz Azul’s goalkeeper is one of the oldest players in Liga MX but he’s still up to par and coach Ricardo Ferretti’s decision to make him the starting goalkeeper proved decisive in the Clausura so far. The team is in pole position to qualify for the final series, Jesus Corona conceded only 12 goals since the start of Clausura, and we’re convinced he’ll be the key player on the pitch on Saturday.
