Monarcas Morelia vs Queretaro Predictions

• Both teams have scored in Morelia’s last 6 Liga MX matches.
• Morelia haven’t won any of their last 4 home league matches.
• 6 of Queretaro’s last 7 games have featured goals at both ends.
• Queretaro’s last 2 games have ended 1-1.

Morelia looking for 3 points

Morelia hardly came into the Liga MX season harbouring big expectations but performed pretty well over the opening phase, reaching the semi-finals of the play-offs before losing to eventual winners Club America. Nonetheless, the hangover from said defeat seems to be having an effect in 2020 and performances haven’t been at the same level, with the team currently stationed in 14th place of the closing phase with just 11 points from 9 matches.

That being said, they are only 3 points short of the top 8 and a return to form would see them move back into contention, making Saturday’s match a big one and one in which they need to go for 3 points. The hosts haven’t won in 4 home league games however, so whether or not they’ll be able to get the job done is a questionable topic.

Queretaro looking to secure a result

Meanwhile, Queretaro were another outfit who came into the campaign with no real expectation on themselves. However, just like Morelia they performed well in the opening phase, finishing 4th in the regular standings before suffering a quarter-final defeat in the play-offs to Necaxa,

Currently 7th in the closing phase standings with 14 points from 9 games, the visitors are on course to finish in the all important top 8 places once again but they need to sustain their form, making this a big game. The visitors certainly aren’t the type of side that looks to sit back, evidenced by the fact both nets have been hit in 6 of their last 7 games and they’ll be making this trip with 3 points in mind.

Plenty of action is expected

Ultimately, Saturday’s game should be an open and exciting once between two teams desperate for the win. Both Morelia and Queretaro harbour play-off hopes and with it not in either side’s nature to sit back, plenty of action is expected for the neutral.

All things considered, backing the Both Teams to Score line simply has to be the way to play as far as the betting is concerned and is something we’re more than happy to do. Both teams have scored in Morelia’s last 6 league games and with Queretaro’s tendency to both score and concede goals, we fancy that streak to extend via a 1-1 draw on the night.
