Before you lock in your Juarez vs. Club America picks or Mexican Liga MX predictions, you must see what soccer bettor Jon (Buckets) Eimer has to say.
Eimer is a high-volume bettor who has vast knowledge of leagues and players across the globe. Since joining SportsLine, he has covered the English Premier League, Serie A, the FA Cup and much more. Since the end of last year's World Cup he has been red-hot, going 156-130-7 for a profit of $3,412 for $100 bettors.
Eimer knows America had the second-best record across the two legs of the 2022-23 season, while Juarez had the 13th-best. Las Aguilas scored 74 goals while conceding 38 in the 34 matches, while Juarez had a minus-9 goal differential (34-43). The hosts lost just one match at Azteca (10-6-1) and had a plus-20 home goal differential. Henry Martin led Liga MX in both goals (24) and assists (10) during the last campaign.
The expert also has considered that Juarez are a physical side that could frustrate the hosts. They committed 18 fouls in the most recent meeting, allowing a goal in the 36th minute and failing to find an equalizer. Los Bravos had the better of possession despite losing both meetings in 2022-23 and had 32 shots, putting 11 on target, in last season's finale. They went 0-2-2 to close the season under new manager Diego Mejia.
