Atlante have bite, but they don’t have América’s bite
Club América are the favourites for this clash at 1.76, with CF Atlante coming in at 4.49 and the draw at 3.54. América's odds are justified, but the value lies in both of the sides.
CF Atlante are on a 2-game losing streak, both defeats coming away from home against Necaxa and CD Tepatitlán de Morelos. Miguel Fuentes' men have won 1, drawn 1 and lost 3 across their last 5 in all competitions, but their home record is much better across their last 5 in all competitions (W4, D1).
Club América come into this game on the back of a pair of 3-3 draws with Pumas UNAM and they've now drawn 2 straight games. They've also won 2 and lost 1 of their previous 5 in all competitions, but this stop-start form was built on far too many draws.
The play for both teams to hit the net
Atlante's high-tempo, attack-first approach should be ideal for this fixture at Estadio Quintana Roo, Mexico. They look to press as a team, catch the opposition off guard and strike on the break. It can make for some lively games, but América's build-up should be the more efficient of the two.
Fuentes' Atlante will typically line up in a wing-back-heavy 3-5-2 or 3-4-3 shape, so they'll go toe-to-toe with América's wider 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 set up. América's system is a little more structured, but they can still push up quickly and the visitors have the advantage in terms of quality and possession control.
Club América are the more likely winner, but Atlante's impressive home record and the fact that they play with some real thrust in the attacking third suggests this could be a more competitive fixture than a stroll in the park. Backing Both Teams To Score is the play, especially with odds of 1.71.
