- Pachuca CF are the clear favourites for Tuesday's Liga MX 2026-2027 clash at Estadio Miguel Hidalgo, but the odds are short and the draw is way off at 4.3.
- Pachuca's home record in Liga MX 2026/2027 reads zero wins, zero draws, and one loss with just 1.00 goal scored and 2.00 goals conceded on average.
- Puebla have won one and lost one of their two away games in Liga MX 2026/2027, averaging 1.00 goals scored and conceded on their travels.
Pachuca are the people to beat at Estadio Miguel Hidalgo
Pachuca CF are the odds-on favourites for this Liga MX 2026/2027 midweek clash against Puebla at 1.49, with the visitors at 6.0 and the draw at 4.3.
Benjamin Mora has been in charge of Pachuca since 1st July 2026 and his vertical, high-tempo 4-3-4 is designed to press high and hit teams on the break when they are able to recover the ball in advanced areas.
Puebla are a totally different sort of team, and Gerardo Espinoza has been their boss since 1st July 2026. He has favoured a more ordered, compact approach with a midfield that sits deep and works the ball forward in a more progressive way than Pachuca.
Puebla have not won at Pachuca in their last two
Pachuca should have the edge in this fixture and with Puebla failing to win on their last two visits to Estadio Miguel Hidalgo, there is every reason to believe the hosts have been bullying this fixture of late.
But Pachuca's form heading into this midweek clash isn't great with only one win in their last five matches and four defeats in a row in all competitions. That sequence included back-to-back CONCACAF Leagues Cup losses to FC Cincinnati (3-1) and Columbus Crew (2-1). Puebla's form is mixed with one win, one draw and three defeats from their last five in all competitions, but they will not be an easy nut to crack on Tuesday.
Puebla’s Eduardo Mustre has bagged one in three
The goals markets look the best value for this clash, however, with Over 2.5 at 1.65 and Both Teams to Score Yes at 1.75 having plenty of appeal in the context of a potentially open Liga MX affair.
Pachuca are 13th in Liga MX 2026/2027 with three points from three games and Puebla are 11th with four points from the same number of games. That suggests an even affair, but the fact that Pachuca have won four of the last five head-to-heads (D1) indicates there could be value in a home win with both teams to score.
Venezuela international Jose Salomon Rondon is Pachuca's leading scorer with three goals in three in Liga MX 2026/2027 - he has also scored three of their last six goals in all competitions. Morocco's Oussama Idrissi has been their most creative player, however, with two assists in three games.
Eduardo Mustre has been Puebla's sharpest finisher with one goal in their opening three Liga MX 2026/2027 games - he has scored two of their last five goals overall. Chile's Alberto Herrera has been their chief creator with two assists from two games in the competition.
