Javier Lopez to Score Anytime
When Nicolas Ibanez left Pachuca everyone believed Guillermo Almada’s boys will have difficulties finding the net. Nothing of the sort is happening these days as Javier Lopez really stepped up his game and filled Nicolas Ibanez’s shoes just fine.
With six goals and one assist since the start of the Clausura, Javier Lopez is currently Pachuca’s key attacking threat that Motagua will have to somehow contain if they want to go home unbeaten.
Under 1.5 Second-Half Goals
Our second Pachuca vs Motagua prediction might upset a few of you who were anticipating an interesting match on Friday but there are very few reasons to believe this match will end in such a way. After all, the first leg between the two teams was a goalless tie, and considering how scarce the goalscoring opportunities were, it will be surprising for the rematch to be much different.
Yes, Pachuca crushed Club America 0-3 a couple of days ago but all of these goals were scored in the first half of the game.

Pachuca vs Motagua Lineups & Team News
Pachuca
The last month has been an emotional rollercoaster for Pachuca’s fans. Los Tuzos crushed Club America 0-3, lost to Monterrey, and to put a cherry on top – their performance against Motagua was mediocre at best. To qualify for the next round of CONCACAF Champions League soccer, Guillermo Almada will have to rally the troops and take more risks.
Predicted lineup – Ustari (GK), Isais, Murillo, Cabral, Alvarez, Hurtado, Sanchez, Chavez, Hinestroza, Lopez & de la Rosa
Motagua
Despite nullifying Pachuca for a goalless tie on the 10th of March, Motagua’s fans were hoping for a goal advantage ahead of the second leg as the game at Estadio Hidalgo will be mission impossible for their favorite club. Motagua are one of the prolific teams for Honduras but not even their league performance is up to par this season. After all, the club is in 4th place after 12 matches played which only boosts our Pachuca vs Motagua predictions even more.
Predicted lineup – Rougier (GK), C. Melendez, S. Melendez, Santos, Triverio, Delgado, Nunez, Decas, Hernandez, Campana & Lopez

Player to Watch: Roberto de la Rosa
Pachuca’s 23-year-old striker is definitely not among the top assets at coach Guillermo Almada’s disposal. After all, his market value is at only €800k. However, he seems to be the kind of player that thrives under pressure as he’s the 2nd-best finisher for his club. He only concedes first place to the outstanding Javier Lopez. We believe that Roberto de la Rosa will be a key figure in this game and a major reason behind the success of our Pachuca vs Motagua predictions.
