Why Bet on Atlas?
Atlas was the penultimate last tournament, after having achieved a historic two-time championship. In this edition of Liga MX they are in 13th position, just 1 point from the playoffs with 3 games to go and this being the last at home, so they must take advantage. They will close their participation in the competition against Atlético de San Luis, one of the teams with which they fight for 12th place.
Although in recent games they have not done badly, beating Puebla (0-4) and drawing in the Clásico TapatÃo with Chivas (3-3) and last weekend with Juárez (1-1), they have been a terrible local: they only won the first game against the last one, Mazatlán (2-1) and then they tied 4 and lost 3. It is the second-worst local team in the tournament, being outmatched only by the aforementioned Cañoneros. In addition, they have just 2 wins in the entire tournament.
The team will suffer the sensitive loss of Uruguayan midfielder Brian Lozano, who has scored 5 goals because he was sent off the previous game. Julián Quiñones is the team’s top scorer with 8 and has scored 4 goals in the last 3 league games.
Why Bet on Pachuca?
The champion will be able to defend his title. After their 1-4 victory against Santos last weekend, they secured their place in the next phase, however, they are fifth with 25 points, and there is only a 3-point difference between the second and them, so they will try to enter in the top 4 to secure their direct pass to the quarterfinals.
They managed to recover from the last defeat and, curiously, they are doing better as visitors than at home, since they have scored 10 points at home and 15 away, being the second-best visitor only behind Monterrey (16). They have 3 consecutive wins in this condition and 5 in the last 6 games: they only lost with Tijuana (2-0) and Tigres (4-1).
Final Betting Analysis: Atlas vs. Pachuca
Two teams with different realities: Atlas must win to qualify while Pachuca is calmer but not over-confident, as they want to go straight to the quarterfinals. The Tuzos are a much better team, they are playing well and they are a great visitor, while the Zorros play badly, are over-dependant on what Quiñones does, and they are a lousy local. We believe that Pachuca will win.
At MyBookie.ag we find that Pachuca is the favorite of the match with a Moneyline of +143, while Atlas has +180 and the draw is +205.
The last time they met was on August 25 of last year and Pachuca won 3-1 with goals from Nicolás Ibáñez, Luis Cháves, and Javier López, while the last time they played in Jalisco it was Atlas who won 2-0 in the first leg of the final of the last Torneo Clausura, which ended up crowning the Zorros.
Go for a straight win for Pachuca in the Moneyline. If you bet $100 on the win at +143, you will gain $143 for a total payout of $243.
