The emotions of the Liga MX opening tournament 2022 continue, and we have reached a new day of matches where the teams are entering a key phase of the tournament. Some are trying to get into the top 4 places in the table to ensure their place in the quarterfinals of the next Liguilla, while others are clinging to the playoff positions.
With the defeat of Toluca and Monterrey last week, the fight for the top places has become much more interesting, since the difference between first and sixth place is only 3 points, which means that we will have an intense end to the regular season.
However, other teams, such as Atlas, León, and Cruz Azul, are looking for a winning streak in this final stretch of the regular season to enter the top 12 and get in the playoffs for a place in the next Liguilla.
Precisely, in this matchday 11, we will have the great match between Atlas and León, which will face each other this Sunday, August 28, 2022, at the León Stadium. Let’s remember that this is one of the most marked rivalries in recent years, as this was the final two tournaments ago when Atlas won the championship trophy.

Why Bet on Atlas
Living a season to forget, Atlas faces this matchday 11 with the firm conviction of obtaining the 3 points that will allow them to enter, surprisingly, the playoff zone, since, after winning their second consecutive championship, they are currently in position #14 in the standings.
Atlas is not even the shadow of the dominant team that won two consecutive tournaments, which is why, if they do not start to change this look on this matchday, it will be very difficult for them to advance to the next phase of this season.
Why Bet on León
On the other hand, León is in a very similar situation to Atlas. Both are equal with 9 points, but they come into this matchday with 4 consecutive defeats, after struggling in the upper-middle zone of the standings.
León has just suffered a hard blow in their last match against their historical rival, Pachuca, when they were defeated by a score of 0-1.
León must also wake up as soon as possible, otherwise, their chances of advancing to the Liguilla will be completely null and void.
Final Betting Analysis: Atlas vs. León
Although both teams are going through a terrible situation this season, both teams know that they have to get the 3 points in this match if they want to keep dreaming of getting back on track.
At MyBookie.ag we can see that there is a Moneyline that strongly favors the León at +121, while Atlas starts at +222.
Both teams have left much to be desired, their performance has not been as expected and, surprisingly, they are out of the playoff positions, when they were expected to fight for first place in the table.
That is why for this match our selection is a 2-2 draw on the scoreboard.
Look for a straight win on the Moneyline Draw. If you put $100 on the Draw at +230, you’ll be looking at a $230 win with a total payout of $330.
