With their 11 point advantage in the league table, Pachuca fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Atlas.
- Pachuca has the most matches under the total-line (19) in Liga MX
- Atlas has the fewest scored goals in the first half (6) 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!
Pachuca form and stats
The story so far in the Liga MX for Pachuca at their home stadium (Estadio Hidalgo) is 3 wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats. With seven home Liga MX games in a row without a win, the Pachuca fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Atletico San Luis game long ago, can be stopped today. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Pachuca to get some points in this home game.
In their previous game, the manager P. Pezzolano Suárez led his Pachuca to a defeat in the Liga MX match away at Queretaro. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estadio Hidalgo.
Pachuca are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 11 goals in 9 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Pachuca's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 10 times.

Atlas form and stats
Atlas have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Liga MX, after 1-4-4 (9 played). Atlas are desperate to end a ten-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Juarez fixture.
There were no winners in Atlas's previous match, a Liga MX home game that ended 1-1 vs Santos Laguna. A 0-0 draw at Pumas UNAM's stadium before that.
The draw against Santos Laguna came from a losing position. The Atlas manager D. Cocca Pera brought on Jonathan Herrera as a substitute and the player scored to make the scores level.
The attacking power of Atlas when travelling is not overwhelming with 8 goals scored from 9 league matches away. 12 goals have been conceded by Atlas in these games.
