Monterrey vs FC Juarez: Predictions, Picks, Odds & Lineups

Monterrey vs FC Juarez predicted formations

Monterrey host FC Juarez at Estadio BBVA on Saturday, August 15 (9:00 PM ET / 8:00 PM CT / 6:00 PM PT).

No fresh fitness concerns look set to disrupt either side at Estadio BBVA. Monterrey should still lean on Lucas Ocampos, who already has 4 goals and 5 chances created this season, alongside Diego Rossi and Jesus Corona going forward. FC Juarez will look to Jose Rodriguez, their leading scorer with a goal and 4 chances created, plus Jairo Torres for an outlet on the counter.

Monterrey have taken 6 points from 3 games this season, and there’s little in Juarez’s recent form – 3 straight losses, including a 1-5 collapse at home to Pumas UNAM – to suggest they arrest that alone. Ocampos’s movement in behind should stretch a Juarez defense low on confidence, and if the visitors get something back through Jose Rodriguez, this looks a game with goals at both ends before Monterrey pull away for a 2-1 win.

MonterreyTop pickMonterrey have taken 6 points from 3 games this season and have Lucas Ocampos in red-hot form with 4 goals already, enough to see off a Juarez side coming off 3 straight losses.
2-1 MonterreyA 2-1 scoreline fits a Monterrey side built around Ocampos's 4 goals and Rossi's own strike, against a Juarez team that shipped 5 in its last outing at home to Pumas UNAM but still has Jose Rodriguez to get on the scoresheet.
YesMonterrey have goals throughout the squad – Ocampos, Rossi and Corona have all scored this season – while Jose Rodriguez has already found the net for Juarez, backing goals at both ends.
Over 2.5Monterrey's own games have produced goals at a rate to back Over 2.5 – a 3-2 win over Santos Laguna and a 2-1 loss at Necaxa both cleared the line – and Ocampos's 4 goals mean the hosts should keep adding to that tally.

    Monterrey have banked 6 points from 3 games this season while FC Juarez are still without a win having lost 3 straight outings. That form gap, allied with Ocampos’s 4 goals in front of goal, points to a home win with goals in it – Signal’s model settles on 2-1 to Monterrey, with both teams finding the net in a game that goes Over 2.5.
