Liga MX strugglers Mazatlan cross swords with a mid-table Atlas side as the home side looks to win their first game of the Clausura phase.
Mazatlan have one draw and four defeats in their opening five games in the Clausura phase as they are seeded at the bottom of the table. Despite ending the Apertura phase in a scintillating manner, the Mexican outfit has fallen off the track as they aim to revive their campaign.
Atlas, on the other hand, is seeded 10th in the table as they have managed two wins in their previous three games after some early struggles. Atlas netted three goals past Santos Laguna without reply in their previous outing as they aim to build the momentum.
