Necaxa Vs Chivas Liga Mx Match 2025

AGUASCALIENTES, Mexico — Necaxa and Chivas will face off in a crucial Liga MX match at Estadio Victoria on Monday, with both teams looking to build momentum early in the Clausura 2025 season. Chivas, fresh off a 1-0 victory over Santos Laguna, aims to secure their second consecutive win, while Necaxa seeks to end an 11-game winless streak in the league.

Necaxa, led by coach Nicolás Larcamón, has struggled to find consistency despite boasting key players like Argentinians Agustín Palavecino and José Paradela, both former River Plate standouts. The team’s last victory dates back five months, and they will rely on home advantage to turn their fortunes around. Palavecino, in particular, has shown promise, registering eight shots in their recent 2-1 loss to Pumas, with two on target.

Chivas, the second-most successful team in Liga MX history with 12 titles, enters the match with renewed confidence. Their recent signing of midfielder Luis Romo from Cruz Azul has bolstered their squad, though they will miss star forwards Alan Pulido and Javier “Chicharito” Hernández due to injuries. Despite these absences, Chivas has demonstrated offensive efficiency on the road, scoring multiple goals in two of their last three away matches.

Historically, Chivas has dominated this fixture, winning 12 of their last 24 visits to Necaxa’s home ground. Their most recent encounter in the Apertura 2022-2023 season ended in a commanding 4-0 victory for Chivas. Bookmakers favor Chivas with odds of 2.45 to 1 (+145), while a Necaxa win is priced at 2.70 to 1 (+170). A draw stands at 3.30 to 1 (+230).

Key match predictions include a 1-1 draw at +550 (6.50), a 1-0 Chivas win at +800 (9.00), and a 1-0 Necaxa victory at +850 (9.50). A 2-1 Chivas win is also a strong possibility at +900 (10.00).

As both teams prepare for this high-stakes encounter, fans can expect an intense battle as Chivas looks to maintain their perfect start and Necaxa fights to revive their season.
