From a largely healthy squad, there’s just a single fitness worry for the Atlas gaffer Diego Cocca to be concerned about. Edgar Zaldívar (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) won’t be playing here.

⚡ Prediction

We think that Atlas will have a tough ask to hit the back of the net against this CD Guadalajara side who we reckon will win and very possibly keep a clean sheet.

That’s why our selection here is for a very competitive encounter with a 1-0 victory for CD Guadalajara at the end of this game.

Let’s see how it plays out.
