Settle down in your comfy couch cushions, sports fans, because we're looking at a riveting enmity between Club Tijuana and Querétaro. I know, riveting isn't a word we use when we talk about sleepy Querétaro, but bear with me. If you've been hiding under a rock or consumed with sumo wrestling or something equally perplexing, here's how they stacked up last season: Querétaro and Club Tijuana danced to nearly the same record, with Querétaro rocking a 6-2-9 and Club Tijuana twirling just behind with 6-1-10.
But let's wander back a bit for a taste of the history between these two teams. Club Tijuana has had the last laugh in 3 out of the 4 most recent matchups. Querétaro has only managed to scrape together a single win in the last three years, but let's not forget that underdog victories make the football world spin, my friends.
Ah, speaking of recent times, let's eye those recent results. Querétaro is riding a decent wave, winning 3 of their last 5 with only one loss. Meanwhile, Club Tijuana landed a win 4 times out of 5, after having sneezed too hard and fumbled with a loss to Club Necaxa.
So, are you all strapped in, folks? Are you ready for this uncharacteristically dry humor to predict where the rainbow will end? I'm putting my faith in the equally whimsical and statistically slightly stronger side.
