This Saturday night is expected to be a key regular-season date for Atlas, as failing to beat Pumas UNAM at Jalisco Stadium could put Hernán Crespo’s continuity on the line. In this regard, a stronger defense is mandatory for this team to remain competitive in the league, especially after a 5-2 loss to Toluca took them out of playoff spots.
Another point is that Atlas couldn’t win its last two home games, even when it was the favorite to beat Atlante and Querétaro. With this in mind, one of Hernán Crespo’s main concerns should be Jorge Sánchez’s continuity in the starting lineup, as he hasn’t made any difference at right back throughout the regular season, and he even left the game against Toluca with an injury.
On Pumas’ side, the team has also struggled to find positive outcomes in its most recent road games, as it has not scored against Tijuana or Guadalajara. Additionally, Pumas’ defense has struggled in its last four games, during which it has been unable to keep a clean sheet. As shown, none of these teams appear to have a strong project, so considering them contenders for the championship would be a clear error.

Our Atlas FC vs Pumas UNAM Prediction
Given these factors, this game will be a defensive challenge for both teams after their recent poor performances. Furthermore, the head coach who loses this game will be in a very bad position to ask for continuity, so taking advantage of the opponents’ errors will become crucial.
In conclusion, even though the odds slightly favor Atlas, Pumas UNAM has enough quality up front to hurt the home team seriously. Therefore, the pick for Atlas FC – Pumas UNAM is: Under 2.5 Goals!
