Club Tijuanaand Atlas cross swords in an intriguing Liga MX fixture as both teams look to keep their hopes of making it through to the Final Series alive.
Tijuana are currently in the 10th spot in the table after 13 games and despite accumulating just 17 points, the Mexican outfit occupies the last play-offs spot for the Final Series. Winless in their previous two games, the Xolos will look to end their wretched streak against Atlas and climb as high as the seventh spot with all three points on Sunday.
Atlas, on the other hand, are just two spots behind their rivals with a single point separating them and the home side. Their form off late might be a massive concern for Benjamin Mora. Los Rojinegros have just one point to show from their previous four games but a win on the road could see them leap into the Final Series play off spot.
