Ju\u00e1rez to Win (Moneyline)<\/strong><\/td>\n+160 @ Bet365<\/a><\/td>\n\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nJu\u00e1rez travel like a side that believe they can hurt anyone, and they\u2019ve backed it up by scoring 18 goals in 11 Clausura matches. Puebla\u2019s attack has too often left them needing perfection at the back, with just 10 goals in 12. If Ju\u00e1rez bring their usual edge, they can nick it.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Under 2.5 Goals<\/strong><\/td>\n-105 @ Bet365<\/a><\/td>\n\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nPuebla\u2019s best path is to make this ugly, slow, and stressful, and they\u2019ve been comfortable living in low-scoring games with four clean sheets in 12. Their recent 0-0 at home to Necaxa fits the pattern when they get the match on their terms. If Puebla control the tempo, it becomes a one-goal swing either way.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
