This Friday, July 28, 2017 (7:00 PM Pacific) Atlas will host Pumas UNAM at the Estadio Jalisco for a matchup in week 2 of the Liga MX Apertura 2017. Both teams need the three points, as both are contenders to make the playoffs in this tournament.
Atlas started off the Apertura 2017 competition with a dominant 3-0 win against Leon away from home. The reliable Matias Alustiza scored one of the goals for Los Rojinegros as well as fresh signing Milton Caraglio. The Argentine pair should be the focal point of Jose Guadalupe Cruz’s offense in this upcoming season and could be influential in this match. The team from Guadalajara will be facing a rigid opponent who is also coming off a victory and the match should be an interesting one.
Pumas UNAM had a 1-0 victory against Pachuca in its Apertura 2017 debut, with Nicolas Castillo providing the lone goal for the Mexico City team. Castillo had a spectacular debut tournament in the Liga MX, scoring eight goals in the Clausura 2017 and is on pace for another fruitful campaign. Pumas UNAM looked rigid and strenuous to break down against Pachuca but the home-field advantage could also have been in play there.
Atlas is one of the team’s that best uses its home-field advantage and this could prove to be a challenging game for Pumas UNAM away from home. The match should be one of the best this weekend and should offer excitement and a few goals as well.
