For the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal second leg, Tigres will host Motagua at Estadio Universitario. After winning the first leg 1-0 on the road in Honduras last week, the hosts are in control of the match. The Mexicans took the lead with a goal in the 44th minute from Luis Quinones.
Tigres followed up their mainland triumph with a 2-1 loss on home turf against Mazatlan in the Mexican Liga MX. Miguel Sansores and Francisco Venegas scored in the first half to give the visitors a two-goal lead, and Sebastian Cordova scored in the 72nd minute for a consolation goal.
Motagua, in the meantime, comes into the game on the rear of a 1-0 away triumph over Vida in the Honduran Liga Nacional. In order to lead his team to all three points, Juan Delgado scored a last-gasp winner. As they try to get into the semifinals, they will focus on the continent. In the round of 16, the winner of this tie will face either Club Leon or Violette.

Tigres UANL vs Motagua Prediction :
Although Tigres entered this tie as favorites and demonstrated their strength in the first leg, they are currently struggling with consistency. They have an advantage in the tie thanks to their narrow victory in Honduras, and the Mexicans will want to finish the job in front of their fans.
Motagua, on the other hand, will still be optimistic about their chances of coming back from a one-goal deficit. They will likely play cautiously in an effort to prevent their hosts from scoring more goals during the break. In recent months, Tigres have played games with few goals, so we expect the hosts to win by a sliver and keep a clean sheet.
Prediction: Tigres 1-0 Motagua
