Atlante welcome Monterrey at Estadio Quintana Roo, Ciudad de México on Saturday, Sep 26 at 3:00 AM in a Liga MX – Apertura fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 0 points split them in the table.

Atlante come into this fixture drawing too many games (3D in last 5). Monterrey are in mixed form (2W 0D 3L), making this a relatively even contest on current form.

Despite playing at home, Atlante face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Monterrey have won 7 of 10 encounters, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Atlante won 2–3. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.4 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Atlante a slight edge, but Monterrey are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
