Tigres UANL Preview

Helping his side making it difficult for the opposition to break through on offence, Jesus Angulo is as rigid as they come for a defender. The 26-year-old is one of league leaders in major stat categories amassing 22 tackles won and 66 successful duels won. Angulo has made 135 appearances for Tigres across all competitions, registering four goals. 

For the team’s sake, hopefully, the international break didn’t cool down Andre-Pierre Gignac. Before the stoppage of the competition, he bagged two goals and an assist in the previous three shifts. The veteran striker currently leads the club in the goals department with five. The 38-year-old has 217 goals in all matches played in a Tigres kit.

C.F. Monterrey vs. Tigres UANL - My Pick

• C.F. Monterrey vs. Tigres UANL pick: Under 2.5 goals (+100) at bet365

Rolling into the Clasico Regiomontano this weekend, we should see a cagey affair that routinely occurs in heated derby fixtures. Eight of the last 11 conflicts between these two have produced the under after 90 minutes. In this edition of the Apertura, both sides are relatively scoring less than their competitors. Monterrey and Tigres have bagged 15 goals a piece through 11 affairs and Tigre's defence have stepped up only conceding six goals. We should get a tight contest where finding the back of the net will have to come from grade-A creative chances.
