Monterrey vs Cruz Azul Lineups & Team News

Monterrey

Rayados have been phenomenal throughout the past year. They were a step away from becoming Clausura champions and were even closer to advancing to the next stage of Leagues Cup soccer. Sadly, coach Ortiz’s boys got piped 0-2 at GEODIS Park by future finalists Nashville, which doesn’t change our minds about these expert Monterrey vs Cruz Azul predictions.

Predicted lineup – Andrada (GK), Aguirre, Medina, Moreno, Gallardo, Meza, Romo, Gove, Rojas, Funes & Canales

Cruz Azul

Coach Joaquin Moreno’s horrible 0-0-2 record against Monterrey is about to get even more disappointing on Monday when his side plays at Estadio BBVA. Cruz Azul couldn’t win a single game since the start of the season, and that will undoubtedly clip the players’ confidence, giving our Monterrey vs Cruz Azul predictions the edge.

Predicted lineup – Gudnio (GK), Escobar, Ditto, Salcedo, Rivero, Lira, Castano, Rotondi, Antuna, Cambindo & Rodriguez

Player to Watch: Rogelio Funes Mori

Goalscorer-in-chief Rogelio Funes Mori was simply above all of his teammates in the Leagues Cup quarter-final game against the MLS champions. Los Angeles went into the break with a two-goal lead against Monterrey but Rayados pulled off a remarkable come-from-behind 2-3 win in the second part, with Rogelio Funes Mori taking key part in the action. He scored and assisted thus earning the MOTM award after the ref’s final whistle. Surely, he’ll help our Monterrey vs Cruz Azul predictions succeed.
