Tigres vs Pachuca Prediction and Betting Tips | 7th April 2024

Tigres will play host to Pachuca at Estadio Universitario in Liga MX on Sunday.

Tigres vs Pachuca Preview

With four rounds of games to end the Torneo Clausura, the second tournament of the 2023-24 season appears too close to call. All top six teams have the possibility of clinching the title due to the small gaps between them. Tigres are fourth placed with 24 points but are closely followed by Pachuca on 22 points.

Los Tigres, who won the Clausura 2023, are eying a successful title defense after reaching the quarterfinal qualification zone in the table (1st - 6th ). However, they must avoid dropping points across the rest of the matches to maintain their place. Tigres’ previous clash with Pachuca ended in a 1-1 draw in an away fixture.

Pachuca’s progress in the standings was bogged down after dropping nine points in their last five matches. They returned to winning ways in style with a 5-0 crushing of Herediano in the CONCACAF Champions Cup on Thursday. Head coach Guillermo Almada will hope to build on that momentum as the Liga MX campaign comes to a climax.

Los Tuzos last won the Clausura in 2016, but they clinched the Apertura in 2022 and have remained competitive in the top flight since then. Their previous visit to Estadio Universitario ended in a 4-0 setback. Pachuca’s last success at the venue dates back to April 2010 in a league match they won 1-0.
