The Eagles are showing a superior level to the red and blacks, so it can be assumed that the two-time champions will advance to the next round, since an early elimination would represent a huge failure for them.
Just in the previous match between them in the Clausura 2024, the team of André Jardine They beat the Atlista team 1-5 at home, which makes us think that something similar could happen, since the team from Guadalajara has not been able to show an increase in level, unlike the team from the capital.
Not only in the offensive zone will the Mexico City team look overwhelming, but in all areas of the field, the team will not hold anything back and will go for the result from the first moments of the match to have the game under control, they will have possession and will have many approaches and dangerous plays subduing the Zorros.
The goalscorer and captain of the blue-cream team is having a great time and is at his best level. In fact, he has just scored a double against the red-and-blacks, so it is very likely that he will be present in the scoring.
The Guadalajara team will not be able to withstand the pressure from the two-time champion and their only response in the match could be to be more aggressive in the encounter, which could lead to some expulsions, since some of them will be off guard, especially the defenders, and it is likely that they will end the game with at least one less player.
