This Friday night, an old rivalry returns to Liga MX as Atlante faces Pumas UNAM at 09:00 pm CST. For this game, Banorte Stadium looks like the perfect venue for these teams to return to action after more than 10 years, and they are expected to leave everything on the pitch in pursuit of a much-needed win.
In this regard, it's hard to ignore that both teams are currently out of the playoff spots, a scenario that makes sense given their deep inconsistencies throughout the regular season. On Atlante’s side, Miguel Herrera should be concerned that his team can't find a consistent offense, as they couldn’t score against Querétaro after a valuable 4-2 win over Monterrey two matchdays ago.
Meanwhile, Pumas UNAM is on a four-game winless streak, and the team has conceded three or more goals in three of those games. Furthermore, César Huerta won’t be available for this game after receiving a red card in the 3-3 thriller against Cruz Azul last weekend. Given these facts, Pumas is expected to strongly depend on Keylor Navas to reach the playoff spots by the end of the regular season.
