- Form: Queretaro's last 5 matches (all competitions) = W3 D1 L1.
- Atlante form: Atlante's last 5 games (all competitions) = W1 D3 L1.
- Odds: Gallos Blancos are expected to be the favourites at 2.0, but the Draw at 3.4 and Atlante at 3.6 seem much more generous odds.
Potros to give the hosts a good game at Estadio La Corregidora
Queretaro overview
Gallos Blancos Queretaro will be a little disappointed not to be sitting higher in Liga MX 2026/2027 as they enter the final day of the first season split in 4th spot with 17 points from 9 games. It's still a strong start that keeps them firmly in the upper pack, but they will want more. The last few weeks have shown them to be a team that can be dangerous on their day, but they lack the consistency to kill games off.
Recent results and scorers
- A 1-1 away draw at Puebla was followed by a 4-2 home win against Monterrey.
- Santiago Homenchenko has been on a good scoring run of late and has 3 of the Gallos' 8 goals across their last 5.
- Ali Avila is their main threat, however, with 4 goals in 9 Liga MX 2026/2027 appearances this season.
Tactical matchup
Esteban Gonzalez has the team set up in a compact 4-2-3-1 formation with players comfortable with the ball, that can link up in the midfield and that are disciplined enough to keep their structure when they do not have the ball. Atlante play a faster-paced game, with a lot of wing overloads and pressing in the opponent's half, which should see these two face off in a typical possession versus counter-attack matchup.
Back the Draw or Atlante at bigger odds than the hosts
Atlante will arrive at Estadio La Corregidora as the underdogs in Liga MX 2026/2027 14th with 11 points from 10 games. They have had a mixed run of results across all current competitions with 1 win, 3 draws and 1 defeat, rather than an outright resurgence.
However, they have won their last two away games, beating Tijuana 1-0 and CD Guadalajara 2-0, before drawing 1-1 at home to Leon last time out. Miguel Herrera's side are a decent option on the road, with 1 win, 2 draws and 2 defeats in Liga MX 2026/2027. Potros de Hierro score 1.20 goals per game away from home and concede 1.60, which isn't far off Queretaro's home record of 5 goals in 4 games, averaging 1.25 per game.
Eugenio Pizzuto has 2 goals in 10 Liga MX 2026/2027 games this season, and Jhojan Julio is their biggest creator with 4 assists so far, which makes the winger their best hope of causing Queretaro's problems.
Gallos should have too much
Queretaro should have enough to edge this match as they are the better side and will be playing at home, but Atlante are a threat on the counter-attack and could keep this game close. Both teams to score at 1.65 is tempting, but I'm going to go for Over 2.5 goals at 1.8, which still gives us a game where both sides are looking to attack.
