ℹ️ Team News: Atlas
Julio Furch (Ankle Surgery) and Edgar Zaldívar (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) will not be able to play for Atlas boss Diego Cocca.
ℹ️ Team News: Monterrey
Owing to an otherwise full-strength group, there’s just the lone fitness problem for the Monterrey boss Javier Aguirre to be concerned about. Daniel Parra (Ruptured knee ligament) misses out for this game.
⚡ Prediction
We’re of the view that Atlas may well find it hard to see themselves scoring against this Monterrey side who we think will get a goal themselves and run out victorious.
We’re going for a very competitive game with a 0-1 advantage for Monterrey when the full-time whistle blows.
Looking forward to this.
