Cruz Azul Vs Necaxa: Head to head record
The two teams have played a total of 26 matches in which the advantage has not been so clear for one side or the other, leaving us with a real nail-biter of a game.
Of those 26 meetings, the Cementeros have won on 12 occasions, while the Rayos has won on 11 occasions, making the match a coin flip.
The draws between the two teams have been few and far between, with only three in their 26 matches so far. But the curious thing about this match is that it will be played at the Azteca Stadium.
And it is curious because both teams have 7 wins at the stadium, which reflects the fact that Cruz Azul's home advantage may not weigh in the match.
Cruz Azul vs Necaxa: predictions and odds
The probability of La Máquina winning the match is 46.5 percent, while Necaxa only has a 23 percent chance of winning the match.
And although there have been very few draws in the past, for this match the probability is quite high, reaching 30.4 percent, and if the match were to end this way, it would most likely end 1-1.
Cruz Azul News
The Cementeros are having a dream start to the Clausura 2022 with three wins and one draw, results that have them in third place in the overall standings of the Liga MX 2022.
And part of this success has been due to the incorporation of Uriel Antuna and, above all, Carlos "Charly" Rodríguez, a player who did not want to become a Cruz Azul player, but who so far has scored 2 goals in just 4 rounds of Liga MX.
Uriel Antuna, a former Chivas player who almost ended up at Club America in the current tournament, has scored the same amount of goals.
Necaxa News
The story for Necaxa is exactly the other way around, as they have just 3 defeats and 1 win, which puts them in 14th place in the Liga MX 2022.
The team's performance was so bad that the dismissal of coach Pablo Guede was announced today, and his replacement is expected to be announced in the next few hours or during the week.
And everything seems to indicate that the replacement will be Jaime Lozano.
