The Liga MX season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between Atlas and Tijuana promises to be an interesting one.
It's no vacation for neither Atlas nor Tijuana as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Tijuana play their home games on artificial turf, while this game is played on grass. Recent stats for Tijuana when playing on grass are 7 wins, 4 draws and 24 defeats from 35 matches. They have scored 26 goals and conceded 66 times in these games.
It's quite the trip for Tijuana when visiting Atlas as the cities are 2200 kilometers apart.
Atlas form and stats
Atlas have collected 0 points from their Liga MX home games so far after 0-0-1. Game days at Estadio Jalisco have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Atlas as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.
The fans are hoping that Atlas will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 2-3 away loss in the Copa MX game against Toluca (placed 9th). Heartbreak before that as Atlas lost 1-2 at Tigres UANL's place.
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 four matches with the results: Won 2 Drawn 0 Lost 2.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Atlas at home in the league. 0 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
Tijuana form and stats
Playing away, Tijuana have won 0 games, drawn 0 and suffered 1 defeat in the Liga MX this season. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Tijuana have lost on their last two travels.
Tijuana have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 218 minutes ago. M. Lainez was the goal scorer.
Tijuana are travelling after their nice 1-0 home win in the Copa MX against Atlético San Luis (placed 5th). Preceding that match was the 0-0 draw at home vs America.
World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager G. Quinteros Desábato when E. López scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 46th minute.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Tijuana playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were 5 Tijuana wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats.
As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Tijuana has managed 0 goals and let in 3 from 1 match.
Head 2 Head
These teams' last encounter with each other was the Tijuana - Atlas 2-2 earlier this season. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Atlas won 2 games, 4 matches ended with a draw and Tijuana has 4 wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: 5 / 5Top Goalscorers
