Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Tijuana in 10th and Atlas in 9th place.

The visiting Atlas played their last game only four days ago, a Copa MX match.

Atlas play their home games on grass, while this game is played on artificial turf. Recent stats for Atlas when playing on artificial turf are 1 win, 1 draw and 3 defeats from five matches. They have scored 5 goals and conceded 8 times in these games. Atlas have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2200 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
