Tijuana Preview

Coming on as a second-half substitute last week, Christian Rivera saw his two-game scoring streak come to a halt. The 28-year-old midfielder currently leads his side in the tally department with six goals in the 2024 Apertura. Amongst his peers in the middle of the pitch, Rivera is in the top third of the competition registering 0.50 shots on target per 90. 

Jose Antonio Rodriguez is doubtful to start in goal recovering from his knee injury. 43-year-old Jose de Jesus Corona will likely see action between the sticks and it’s not much of a downgrade with his impressive stats. The Mexican international has appeared in five matches, maintaining an 80 percent save percentage while conceding 0.98 goals against per game.

Tijuana vs. Tigres UANL - My Pick

• Tijuana vs. Tigres UANL pick: Tijuana double chance (-138) at bet365

Both sides with three games remaining in the campaign are battling to finish in third place overall. Los Xolos are currently rolling when they take their talents to Estadio Caliente, where they’re unbeaten in their last eight home games. Tigres are decent in their road performances this year collecting three wins in seven away trips. In their last six visits to Estadio Caliente, Tigres have only managed to secure two victories. Tijuana has shown their home fortress is a tough place for the opposition to walk away with all three points. We feel on Friday Tijuana can come through again with a result at home like they have previously done against various Liga MX heavyweights they squared off with.
