Two mid-table Liga MX sides square off as Atlas hosts Leon with both sides looking to shake off their shambolic streak of results.
Atlas have just two wins from their seven games in the Clausura phase and have struggled for form of late. The side was involved in a toothless stalemate against Pumas UNAM last time out despite the latter going down to 10 men.
Leon, on the other hand, has just one win in the second phase as they have accumulated zero points from the previous nine available. The visitors conceded a late goal against Club America last time out despite a considerably better performance.
Here, GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch, including TV channel, streaming details and more.
