Mazatlán takes the lead with a goal by Nicolás Benedetti (31' 1T).
Expect a tough match this season between two teams looking for the victory that eluded them last week (they only managed to rescue a draw) to stay alive in the current season.
Mazatlán only managed to get one point in their last match against CF Monterrey, after a 0-0 draw. In the previous 4 matchdays, they won once, drew twice, and were defeated once.
Atlas added one point in the previous match, after a goalless draw with Pumas UNAM. In their last matches, they suffered 3 defeats and achieved 1 draw.
The home team is currently in fourteenth place with 12 points (2W - 6D - 4L), while the visitors have accumulated 10 points and are in sixteenth place in the tournament (2W - 4D - 7L).
