Atlas vs Jaguares 2013 – Liga MX Week 5

The Atlas vs Jaguares Liga MX 2013 match will be this Friday, February 1, 2013 (8:30 PM EDT) at the Estadio Victor Manuel Reyna.  Last week, Club Atlas left the last place of the percentage table with a 2-1 win against Club America.  On Friday they will try to live off their good moment and obtain points against the league’s current worst team, Jaguares.  The team from Chiapas sits in last place with only 1 point after 4 games while Atlas is 6th with 7 points.

The team led by coach Tomas Boy played its best and most exciting game in over a season last week when they defeated America at the Estadio Jalisco.  Atlas was lively and the fans were amazing, and while defeating America was a wonderful achievement, they will need that type of play to survive in the first division.  Atlas has played well after four weeks, and on Friday they face who currently is the league’s worst team.  Winning against Jaguares would momentarily put them 5 points ahead of relegation rivals Queretaro.

Jaguares of Chiapas has only 1 point this far into the season.  This is a team with a disastrous defense as they have received 10 goals, and an irregular offense.  To worsen things, Colombian striker is ruled out for this match because he is with his nation’s U-20 side.  Jaguares needs to respond quickly, or their season will be terminated and they will become part of the relegation battle in the short run.

Atlas vs Jaguares Prediction

Atlas has played greatly after 4 games into the Clausura 2013.  This is a team that has only received 3 goals, and who plays with a lot of desire.  Jaguares on the other hand is once again having a terrible start to a season. However, points will eventually go their way, and Friday’s game will be a good opportunity as they play at home and with the pressure to succeed.  The Atlas vs Jaguares 2013 match will end 2-1 in favor of the home team.
