Chivas Guadalajara vs. Santos Laguna Betting Prediction

Chivas Guadalajara Preview

After starting the newly opened campaign out in front, leading the pack, Gabriel Milito’s crew have cooled off a bit. After two straight defeats, the Striped Goats lost their first-place status, now dropping to third with a game in hand. Over the weekend, Chivas found their way back into the win column, grinding out a 2-1 road win over Atlas. Needing a late successful penalty attempt from Ángel Sepúlveda, it was a deserved win after the full-time whistle as Chivas overwhelmed Atlas throughout the contest, retaining 72 percent of the possession while finishing with an x.G of 2.61 versus Atlas’ 0.61. 

Almost contributing half of Chivas’ registered goals after nine matches, the youngster Armando González keeps adding to his stats account. Currently sitting tied for second in Liga MX’s Golden Boot race with six tallies, he is a worthy candidate to breach the keeper once again on Saturday. The opposition will have a difficult time containing the striker, as González is one of the competition's liveliest players, averaging 3.78 shots per 90, which ranks among the highest amongst his peers.

Santos Laguna Preview

Four matches into his new role as manager, Omar Tapia finally led his squad to victory last weekend, a 2-1 road win over Tijuana. Breaking through for the first win this year, Santos Laguna will be looking to carry the momentum into Saturday, digging itself out of the league basement with a Liga MX low five points. 

The club possess two forwards Chivas should be wary of: Lucas Di Yorio and Ezequiel Bullaude. The duo share the same amount of production so far, cataloging four goals each. If these two are given time and space, they are likely to make the opposition pay, especially Di Yorio, who has proved to be a solid setup man also, accumulating two assists this season.

Chivas Guadalajara vs. Santos Laguna - My Pick

• Chivas Guadalajara vs. Santos Laguna pick: Chivas Guadalajara two-way spread -1.5 (-168) at FanDuel

Santos Laguna might have a skip in their step after breaking the goose egg in the win category, but matching up against Chivas on the road might bring them back to reality. Out of the Striped Goats' seven wins in 2026, only once have they won by a margin of two goals; that said, we feel this is a favourable moment to punish the opponent. Santos Laguna has surrendered a league-high 26 goals, with keeper Carlos Acevedo at the forefront as the last line of defence, which doesn’t help their position going into Saturday.

Carlos Acevedo has one of the worst save percentages across the competition, stopping less than 60 percent of the shots he faces while possessing an xGOT faced of 18.3, meaning he’s letting in more goals than expected as he’s been on the pitch for 26 goals. It’s a high price, but we sense Chivas’ quality in the final third should close the deal.
