- Rayados have won 3 of the last 5 head-to-head encounters between these two sides (Atletico de San Luis won the other two).
- Rayados are unbeaten at home in Liga MX 2026/2027 with 2 wins in 2 and Atleti have drawn 1 and lost 1 of their 2 away trips.
- Rayados have scored 4.50 goals per match at home in Liga MX 2026/2027, scoring 9 goals in total.
Rayados have Rayado’s best attacking options
CF Rayados de Monterrey have been in good form since 1 July 2026 when Matias Almeyda took over as head coach and stamped his compact, high-pressing 4-3-5 identity on the side.
Lucas Ocampos is their main attacking weapon with 5 goals in 5 Liga MX 2026/2027 matches and Hugo Cuypers has also struck four times in the same period.
However, Rayados have also been very generous at the back, and a run that has seen them take 3 wins and 2 losses and sit in seventh place in Liga MX 2026/2027 with 9 points from 5 matches.
Atleti are in a much worse position after starting the campaign with 3 points from 5 games and sitting in 16th.
The visitors have lost 4 of their last 5 in all competitions, winning 0 and drawing 1.
David Rodriguez has contributed 2 of their 6 goals during this period, so he will be the main outlet for Atleti, who are more structured and adaptable than Rayados.
Home side should have the edge
Atletico de San Luis have taken 2 of the previous 5 meetings between these sides, most recently beating Rayados 2-1 away in Liga MX 2025/2026.
Diego Mejia has led the team since 1 July 2026 and brings an organised, attacking style to the club, focusing on pressing after loss and a vertical style when in possession.
Atleti's wingback system also leaves the team open to counters if they cannot win the second balls and Rayados are the masters of pressing and counter-attacking.
Rayados have won 2 of their last 3 home head-to-heads against Atleti and we think they will have enough about them to secure the win, although Atleti's pressing style should keep the contest competitive.
However, Rayados' home firepower should be the difference and their goals per game statistics indicate that the draw or Atleti bet makes little sense.
Atletico de San Luis have played 2 games on the road in Liga MX 2026/2027, averaging 1.00 goal so we are backing Over 2.5 goals at 11/20 with Both Teams to Score at 31/50 just off the boil.
As mentioned, we feel Monterrey have enough about them to win, but the odds on them at 1/2, the draw at 69/20 and Atleti at 47/10 are not attractive enough to add to the main selection.
