Santos comes from 3 consecutive draws in Liga MX 2021, against Cruz Azul, Tigres, and their most recent match against Guadalajara with a 0-0 result. Despite this, they managed to defeat Orlando City in the first leg, as visitors, for the quarterfinals of the Leagues Cup, with a very good result of 1-0.
Why Bet on Atlas
On the other hand, Atlas comes to this match in good form and occupying sixth place in the general table. They have a record of 2 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss, with 7 points out of 12 possible.
In their most recent game, Atlas was defeated by America at the Jalisco Stadium, with a score of 1-0. In this match, the key was the great defense shown by America, which only allowed the Atlas attackers to shoot at goal 2 times.
