Today's Liga MX Plays

Breaking Down the Value

Guadalajara has been playing poorly, losing their last three games in Liga MX while Monterrey has won four of five. The model shows that Guadalajara is a mediocre team with a 46.4% chance to win this game, while the market only sees them as a 30.8% favorite. This means we see significantly more value in betting on Monterrey at +225 than the market is currently pricing in. Pachuca has been playing well lately, winning two of their last three games and beating Toluca earlier in the season. The model gives Pachuca a 43.9% chance to win this game while the market only sees them as a 27.0% favorite. This means we see significantly more value in betting on Pachuca at +270 than the market is currently pricing in.

The Chivas have been struggling mightily, losing four of their last five games and looking completely out of sorts. Vegas loves them, though, giving them massive odds of -185 to win. You know what they say about teams that give huge favorites: they're the ones people love to bet on because it's so easy to win money! But let me ask you something... if a team is really good and likely to win, why would they be such massive favorites in the first place? It makes no sense. You might as well just throw your money away. The Pachuca rooster has been crowing loudly lately but their odds are still too short for my liking. Vegas loves them, too, giving them -140 odds to win. Again, if a team is really good and likely to win, why would they be such low favorites in the first place? It makes no sense. You might as well just throw your money away. Don't be like those gamblers who fall for the lure of huge favorites and short odds. Bet smart and take advantage of value where you can find it.
