👉 Our prediction is: Cruz Azul to win

In all honesty, there is no other result we can foresee for this match other than Cruz Azul to win outright, which is our betting tip.

Cruz Azul's strong form this season, particularly at home, is hard to overlook, as are Atlas's shaky overall results and performances of late. And we expect the two sides to play true to form when they meet for their upcoming match.

👉 Our prediction is: under 9.5 corners

According to our projections for Cruz Azul vs Atlas, this is a match where we can find a good deal of value in the corner market.

With little offensive action anticipated from the two sides, our best tip is to take the under on 9.5 corners. That means 9 total corners or fewer throughout the match will win the bet.
