Double chance – draw or Tijuana
We don’t get why the bookies consider Juarez to be favorites in this match. The head-to-head advantage, fragile as it might be, is still in Tijuana’s favor and with three victories, three draws, and two losses against Juarez, the away team will certainly like to get a good result here. Especially when you take into account the terrific Clausura start that Tijuana had a couple of days ago after that 1:1 draw at home versus Cruz Azul.
Under 2.5 goals
Two of Tijuana’s last three games ended with Under 2.5 goals. The only one that didn’t was the very interesting 2:2 draw against Leon on the 3rd of October. It seems that coach Ricardo Valino did a good job with the defensive line as Cruz Azul barely had many chances in Tijuana’s penalty area.
Furthermore, five of the eight games between the two teams had two or fewer goals and we even got to see two goalless ties.

Juarez odds: +130 – 43.0%
Draw odds: +230 – 28.2%
Tijuana odds: +225 – 28.8%
As you clearly see from the odds above, 28.2% or 28.8% – it doesn’t matter. The chances for us to see a draw or a Tijuana victory are quite similar. Juarez, for some reason, are the bookies’ favorites to win at +130 which amounts to a 43.0% chance of victory. Combine together the chances for a draw and a Tijuana win, and you get a fine double chance prediction that just might be the best betting decision you’ll make this week.
Predicted lineups, team news, and last result
Juarez
It’s true, Los Bravos didn’t perform well at all in the Apertura as the team was ranked 11th and barely made it to the final series but we feel confident that Hernan Cristante’s hard work in charge of Juarez is going to pay off soon.
The players deserved to lose against Pumas UNAM in the last fixture as they barely had 30% possession and with only three shots on target, you can’t claim a good ranking in the Clausura.
Predicted lineup – Talavera (GK), Olivera, Salcedo, Arribas, Rodriguez, Salas, Duenas, Machis, Garcia, Medina Camacho & Fernandez
Tijuana
We really missed Tijuana in Apertura’s final series but, sadly, the players couldn’t qualify after their disappointing performance. They achieved 17 points in 17 games and such sort of mediocre display is never going to be enough to win anything significant in Mexico.
Nevertheless, it seems that coach Ricardo Valino’s boys have learned their lesson as they performed above all expectations in the match against Cruz Azul on the 9th of January. We’re not going to go as far as to say that Tijuana deserved the victory as Cruz Azul had their chances as well but a draw is still an impressive accomplishment.
Predicted lineup – Rodriguez (GK), Godinez, Lopez, Guzman, Diaz, Vazquez, Lertora, Valenzuela, Rodriguez, Canelo & Romero

Player to watch: Lisandro Lopez
Yes, Lisandro Lopez certainly did his job well in the Cruz Azul game a couple of days ago, denying the opposition’s strikers opportunities to score. He was robust and barely made any mistakes trying to pass the ball forward.
But that’s not all this sensational player did in the last fixture! He also found the net in the 45th minute of the game. Sure, it was only a penalty but with Lisandro Lopez being on penalty duty for his manager, we just might see him score again on the 15th of January.
