Monterrey to Win
Los Albiazules were one of the top teams in the Apertura and we’re convinced that with a new manager in charge, the team will have the ambition, desire, and skills to finally win a trophy. Puebla are standing on the way to success this Saturday but it doesn’t seem like the home team has the required arsenal for this job.
Our Puebla vs Monterrey prediction this week is for a solid performance by the visitors. Just like they did in three of the last seven head-to-heads.
Both Teams to Score – Yes
Yes, Puebla may have won only four points in the first three games of the Clausura but the players certainly showed they are no pushovers as they managed to score in each one of these matches. The only Liga MX showdown in which Puebla didn’t concede was the clash against Queretaro on the 14th of January which ended with a comfortable 2:0 home win for Puebla.
Furthermore, our Puebla vs Monterrey prediction is backed up by the head-to-head data as six of the last 10 matches ended with both teams scoring at least one goal.

Puebla odds: +245 – 27.8%
Draw odds: +255 – 26.2%
Monterrey odds: +110 – 46.0%
The Liga MX odds you see above are adamant. At +110, Monterrey have a 46.0% chance of winning this match which corresponds with our Puebla vs Monterrey prediction. However, Victor Vucetich shouldn’t underestimate Puebla as they do have a 27.8% chance of securing the three points and the players will want to defy the odds which stand at +245.
Predicted Lineups, Team News, and Last Result
Puebla
Puebla’s fans experienced it all in the last couple of weeks. The players managed to win, lose, and share the spoils in the three games that were played so far. This accumulated four points for the team and we now have Puebla gravitating toward the middle of the table. An action-packed second half versus Club America is probably Puebla’s key performance in the Clausura as nobody expected Club America to fail at Estadio Azteca the way they did.
Predicted lineup – A. Silva (GK), Maia, G. Silva, Gularte, Martinez, De Buen, Garcia, Waller, Mancuello, Gustavo & Barragan
Monterrey
Monterrey are trailing by only one point in the Clausura ranking as Tigres UANL made an error in last week’s fixture versus Club Tijuana. Now, coach Victor Vucetich would probably like to keep the pressure as much as he can but to do so he’ll opt to make a few changes as the 3:1 victory at Estadio BBVA over Atletico San Luis was definitely not as convincing as the result on the scoreboard implies. It was the visitors who had 56% possession and more shots but regardless of how poorly Monterrey performed, we still base our Puebla vs Monterrey prediction on the fact that Los Albiazules are one of the most prolific Mexican teams.
Predicted lineup – Andrada (GK), E. Aguirre, Medina, Moreno, Gallardo, Berterame, Romo, Ortiz, Gonzalez, Funes & R. Aguirre

Player to Watch: Rogelio Funes Mori
With a sensational hattrick against Atletico San Luis in the last Liga MX fixture, Rogelio Funes Mori rightfully deserved to be in the best XI for this week in Mexico. His skills in the penalty area were pure fire and Atletico San Luis’ defenders simply had no way to maintain this beast of a striker. We expect Rogelio Funes Mori to be at his lethal best against Puebla as well and help out our Puebla vs Monterrey prediction for this week.
