This massive Primera (Clausura) Liguilla quarter-final showdown between Necaxa and Tigres takes place on Wednesday. What with a date with the semi-final as the reward for the club that gets through, let’s hope for a thrilling encounter between the two sides.
Our Necaxa v Tigres de la UANL tips, poll and stats can be seen in full below - plus the latest match odds.
Necaxa, buoyed by their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after the 0-1 Liga MX (Clausura) success versus Puebla.
In that match, Necaxa managed 54% possession and 20 attempts on goal with 5 of them on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Necaxa was José Paradela (44'). At the other end, Puebla had 12 shots on goal with 1 on target.
Necaxa haven’t had any problems with scoring, netting in one hundred percent of their last 6 games.
They have claimed a sum of 12 during that time and have conceded a total of 9. That pattern isn’t assured to be continued into this next game, however.
After a losing effort in their last game against Cruz Azul in CONCACAF Champions League competition, Tigres will be aiming to make amends here.
Ángel Sepúlveda (82') scored for Cruz Azul.
The numbers tell their own story, and Tigres have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, with opponents netting 6 goals overall. Defensively, Tigres de la UANL seem to have a bit of a soft underbelly.
A review of their past head to head meetings going back to 09/10/2022 tells us that these encounters have not been kind to Necaxa. They’ve not managed to come away with any wins at all while Tigres have been too good for them, winning in 100% of those matches.
A sum of 17 goals were scored between the two sides in this period, with 3 of them for Lightning Bolts and 14 netted by Los Tigres. The average goals per game has been 2.83.
The last league fixture between these clubs was Liga MX (Clausura) match day 10 on 02/03/2025 when it finished Necaxa 1-2 Tigres de la UANL.
On that occasion, Necaxa had 45% possession and 13 shots at goal with 4 on target. Their only player to score was Agustín Palavecino (82').
On the other side, Tigres de la UANL had 16 shots on goal with 6 on target. Juan Brunetta (53') and Jesús Garza (94') scored.
The match was refereed by Guillermo Pacheco.
It’s a low absenteeism rate, with just a single fitness concern for the Necaxa gaffer Nicolás Larcamón to be concerned with from a near full-strength squad. Agustín Oliveros (Shin injury) misses out.
Thanks to a largely full-strength group of players, there’s just the one fitness issue for the Tigres gaffer Guido Pizarro to be concerned with. Diego Reyes (sprain) won’t be in action.
In our opinion, Tigres de la UANL and Necaxa could both end up scoring in what appears to be a good match-up, with little separating these two teams.
There should be little in it, and a draw looks to be quite a realistic result. That’s why we have predicted a very even match with a 1-1 score at full-time.
