- Atlas are on a 2-match winning streak, but are winless in 3 home H2H meetings.
- Queretaro are winless in 5 games, but are unbeaten in 2 away games in Liga MX 2026/2027.
- Aldo Rocha leads the scoring charts for Atlas with 1 in 2 appearances in Liga MX 2026/2027.
Tactical clash can go either way at Estadio Jalisco
CF Atlas Guadalajara enter Saturday's Liga MX 2026-2027 clash with Gallos Blancos Queretaro on a roll after consecutive wins away to FC Cincinnati and Club Tigres de la UANL. Atlas have 9 points from 4 games which puts them 6th in the standings, a solid start by Hernan Crespo's men.
Crespo has only been in charge since 16 July 2026, but it is clear that his vertical, high-tempo style is having an immediate impact on the field. Atlas have conceded three goals in two home matches in Liga MX 2026/2027, so they are still a little bit leaky at the back, but Aldo Rocha's ability to pick out teammates on the edge of the box has got the Rojinegros running at the opposition with more cleanliness in the attacking third.
Gallos are in mixed-to-poor form, but a solid away record has kept them in the thick of the action in the Liga MX 2026/2027 standings with 7 points from 5 matches, enough to keep them 9th in the table. Esteban Gonzalez took over as head coach of Queretaro on 1 January 2026 and has crafted a compact and pragmatic unit that have allowed only 1 goal in 2 away matches in Liga MX 2026/2027.
Side with the draw and both teams to score
Atlas are the favourites to win this at 1/1, but Querétaro are 49/20 and the draw is 51/20 so the odds on this game don't quite add up, in my opinion. We will side with the 'sides' to play out and take the value that is on offer in the BTTS market at 7/10.
A 0-0 draw was the outcome when these two met at Estadio Jalisco in Liga MX 2025/2026 and this fixture has the potential to get cagey again. Crespo's side are likely to push for this one and try to put the ball in the net from various angles while Querétaro will try to stay compact and look to nick it on the counter. That is likely to lead to plenty of chances at each end, while a goal each seems to be a more likely outcome than a runaway victory for Atlas, particularly given their recent home H2H record with Querétaro.
