After analysing the odds in the different markets, our best betting tip for this match is on the corners market and taking the total to go under 9.5 corners.

We anticipate Cruz Azul vs Tigres UANL to be quite a controlled match with the main action concentrated in the middle of the pitch. That should limit the number of opportunities for corners, and so the odds of 1.56 for 9 corners or fewer looks quite attractive.
