Analysis:

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. Liga MX Take Guadalajara/Pumas UNAM OVER 2.5 (-160) (10 p.m. EST, Sunday April 5) Guadalajara Chivas have been one of the top defensive sides in Liga MX this season but they showed some cracks defensively last week at Monterrey, where they allowed two goals. It would be tough to keep up the defensive numbers they have earned this season, especially as we near the postseason and some teams are playing their best. One of those sides is Pumas UNAM, now fourth on the table and the third best side for goals scored league wide. They have now scored in 18 straight matches across all competitions, and they will be ready to compete here and make up some ground on No. 1 Chivas. Guadalajara leads the league in goals scored with 25 through 12 matches, so they are averaging more than two per match. Just looking at the odds, Guadalajara is a heavy favorite and very likely to win, but it’s hard to imagine Pumas getting shut out considering their long streak of matches where they scored. Chivas won 2-1 last time these sides met, in October in Mexico City. We think they can do even better at home and Pumas will not be a pushover here. Nice value on the over even when laying some juice. Read More Read Less
