Monterrey is the team that knocked out two champions in the last two rounds of the 2023 League Cup - MLS LAFC champion and Liga MX champion UANL Tigres. In addition, Monterrey is the only League Cup team to win every game in 90 minutes of regulation time. This explains why the Mexican team is considered to be the betting favorite in the semi-finals against Nashville.

However, the Boys in Gold should not be underestimated as they have been in amazing form lately. They defeated Minnesota United 5-0 in the previous round.

Monterrey is determined to show that Liga MX is better than MLS
Monterrey is the only Mexican team left in the 2023 League Cup, but can these guys make it to the end? They have been great from the very beginning of the tournament, winning every game in the first team. Most impressively, Monterrey has so far faced some of the true heavyweights of North American football.

After a relatively easy group stage run against Real Salt Lake, the Seattle Sounders and the Portland Timbers, Monterrey played against two very strong opponents in the League Cup playoffs.

At first, the Rayados played against the 2023 Mexican league champions MX Clausura, UANL Tigres. It was a very close match, but Monterrey won 1-0 thanks to a penalty from their new playmaker Sergio Canales in the 7th minute of stoppage time.

Monterrey then defeated MLS champions Los Angeles in the quarter-finals of the 2023 League Cup. It was another incredibly tense game in which the Mexicans played 2-0 and won 3-2.

Nashville fans pin hopes on Honey Mukhtar
Hani Mukhtar is one of the best MLS players and Nashville SC's biggest star. The playmaker put on a classic show in a 5-0 win over Minnesota United in the quarterfinals, in which he scored one goal and provided three assists.

He was also very good against Club America in the round of 16, in which his team won on penalties after 2-2 in regulation time. With him in great form, the Boys in Gold look capable of scoring just about any opponent in the League Cup.

However, Nashville SC is not very good defensively. These guys have already conceded eight goals in the League Cup. In addition, they have conceded a total of eight goals in their last five games in MLS 2023.

Monterrey vs Nashville SC Prediction
According to Transfermarkt, the Monterrey squad has an estimated value of approximately $88 million. That's almost double the cost of Nashville SC ($48 million). Knowing this - and taking into account their performance in the 2023 League Cup - it is logical to assume that Monterrey will win on Tuesday night.

Selection: Monterrey (win)
