Tijuana vs Santos Analysis
Tijuana could use some luck

Tijuana vs Santos Pick and Prediction
While people making soccer picks will see that Tijuana has slightly better soccer odds of winning at home, Tijuana has done little to earn that respect this season. Santos’ defense has been playing especially well over the past few weeks. While Santos is due for some regression, that shouldn’t start this week.
Expect Santos to grind out another win and extend Tijuana’s misery for a few more days.
- Pick: Santos ML (+270)
