How to watch today's Queretaro vs Atlas Liga MX game: Live stream, TV channel, and start time

The upcoming Queretaro versus Atlas clash in Matchday 5 of Liga MX will take place under heightened security, a precaution still lingering from the infamous 2022 incident when fans stormed the pitch. 

Three years on, the Corregidora Stadium once again hosts this fiery fixture, but this time, Querétaro enter in dire form, enduring a nightmare start to the season with four straight Liga MX defeats on top of three losses in the League Cup.

Their most recent outing against América was another gut punch, as the Gallos Blancos conceded in just the sixth minute to Espinoza and never recovered, finishing the match with a meagre 24% possession.

Atlas, meanwhile, are hardly riding high themselves. Los Zorros arrive on the back of five consecutive defeats, but there’s a flicker of hope in the form of a familiar face — Diego Cocca. The championship-winning coach returns for a second spell at the helm, aiming to spark another turnaround like the one that delivered Atlas back-to-back titles in his previous tenure.

Queretaro FC team news

Querétaro head into their next outing with a couple of notable absentees, as Federico Lértora continues to nurse a calf issue and Carlos Valenzuela remains sidelined with a troublesome knee problem. 

Atlas team news

Over in the Atlas camp, the injury list is equally concerning — Eduardo Zaldivar is recovering from a knee setback, while Mauro Manotas faces a lengthy spell out after suffering a cruciate ligament blow. Both sides will have to dig deep and shuffle their options as they cope with these key losses.
