The visiting Tigres UANL side should be favourites in this visit to Atlas, as the away team holds a 14 point advantage from their 17 league games this season.
- Atlas have the fewest matches over the total-line (8) in Liga MX
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
These teams have little in common geographically as Tigres UANL have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Atlas form and stats
With 2 Liga MX wins, 1 draw and 5 defeats from their home games, Atlas, who have the fewest points (7) at home in Liga MX, are certainly not brimming with confidence. The Atlas manager D. Cocca Pera might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.
Atlas are returning here after visiting Necaxa in a Liga MX game and winning with a 5-1 scoreline. Julio Furch scored the goal(s). Ahead of that match, Atlas lost 0-1 at home to Guadalajara.
As mentioned above, Atlas "killed" Necaxa in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency. Atlas goalkeeper Nahuel Guzmán did an outstanding job against Necaxa with eight saves, so vital to securing the victory.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Atlas have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found nine matches with the results: Won one, drawn one and lost seven.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Atlas here at Estadio Jalisco in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (5 from 8 games). Atlas's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 8 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Tigres UANL form and stats
