Club Puebla vs Monterrey: Predictions, Picks, Odds & Lineups

Club Puebla host Monterrey at Estadio Cuauhtemoc on Wednesday, October 21 (9:00 PM ET / 8:00 PM CT / 6:00 PM PT).

Club Puebla have no fresh fitness concerns to speak of, with Eduardo Mustre and Mathias Borges pushing to start after combining for five goals this season. Kevin Velasco Bonilla, the attacking midfielder who leads the squad with eighteen chances created, offers another route through the lines. Monterrey, similarly untroubled by injury or suspension news, will lean on Lucas Ocampos after five goals from twenty-eight shots, with Hugo Cuypers and Diego Rossi each contributing three goals of their own.

This one shapes up as a cagey affair rather than an afternoon of fireworks. Puebla have won four of their eleven matches and sit on a negative goal difference, with draws against Club Leon and Atlante FC either side of a home defeat to Toluca and an away loss at Tigres UANL. Monterrey have won one, drawn two and lost two of their own last five, including a goalless draw with Tigres UANL and a heavy loss at Atlante FC, but they arrive off a 1-1 draw at Club America. Their firepower up top, led by Ocampos and backed by Rossi’s return of three goals and three assists, should be enough to find the net once and nothing more at Estadio Cuauhtemoc.

Season Form & Standings

Club Puebla have picked up fifteen points from eleven matches, winning four, drawing three and losing four, with a negative goal difference reflecting a season of fine margins at Estadio Cuauhtemoc. Monterrey’s underlying numbers, built on contributions from Lucas Ocampos and Diego Rossi in front of goal, tell the story of an away side capable of being dangerous without always controlling matches, as their mixed run of one win, two draws and two losses in their last five shows.

Club Puebla vs Monterrey Prediction

Monterrey have scored just one goal in four of their last five matches, so this looks set to be functional rather than spectacular — but enough to see off a Puebla side with four wins from eleven matches and a negative goal difference. We’re calling it 0-1 to Monterrey, a result in keeping with Liga MX’s tightest matchups this season.
