Juarez vs Necaxa Prediction Betting Tips & Palpite

Juarez vs Necaxa
Mexico Liga MX
Date: Monday, February 10, 2024
Start at 02pm UK
Venue: Estadio Olimpico Benito Juarez, Juarez

Juárez FC hosts one of the most popular teams in the country, Necaxa, in the closing game of the fifth round. The fact that neither of these two teams have lost a match in the past three weeks is a great introduction to the derby.

Juárez dispatched Morelia, Querétaro and América consecutively, scoring nine goals in the process. It seems that it was enough to earn the respect of the bookmakers: the house's victory is priced at 2,25 odds, while Necaxa's chance of getting the same is 3,00. All in all, we expect to see a lot of action and goals.

Necaxa may not be as efficient as their next opponents, but three of their last four competition meetings have ended in BTTS or Over 2,5 FT. They are in third place with eight points from four games (still undefeated with two wins and two draws).

Juarez has completely changed things compared to last season when he was 16th. Necaxa, in turn, played in the playoffs after finishing fifth in the Aperatura 2019.

Juárez vs Necaxa: head-to-head

We've had five head-to-head matches between Juárez and Necaxa in the past. Juarez won none of them, while losing four! Their most recent clash in September 2019 was terrible to watch and ended goalless.

The average number of goals scored in their games so far is 1,60 per game.

Juárez vs Necaxa: Prediction

Necaxa has been very consistent when it comes to the top six, which can hardly be said for the hosts. Juarez' form could decline considerably in the coming weeks and we don't think they have what it takes to beat Necaxa. A draw or away win is a solid bank bet at 1,57.

We will support the under 2,5 FT goals option for the side bet. Only one match between them in the past has seen more than two goals.

Juárez vs Necaxa: betting tips

• Draw or win away at 1,57

• Less than 2,5 feet to 1,80
