🧠 Prediction

We’re inclined to think that Vancouver FC will likely create enough chances to get a goal against this Cruz Azul side, although one goal is unlikely to be enough to prevent defeat.

We therefore reckon that it will be a close game with a 1-2 winning margin for Cruz Azul at the end of this one. We are expecting it to be pretty even.
