On the other hand, Tigres, known as the “Tigers,” finished fifth in the Liga MX Clausura regular season, only four points behind the top spot. They won nine out of their 17 matches but were eliminated in the playoffs’ first round by Monterrey, losing 1-2 at home and drawing 1-1 away. In the Mexican Super Cup, Tigres lost 1-2 to América and began the Apertura season with a 1-0 victory over Necaxa at home. Notably, they secured four wins and suffered three defeats in nine away matches last Clausura.
In recent encounters between these teams, Tigres have shown dominance, winning three of the last five matches against Atlas, with one match ending in a draw. The “Both Teams to Score” bet has been successful only once in these five matches.
Regarding predictions for the upcoming match, bookmakers favor Tigres with odds of 2.05 for an away victory. However, Tigres have won only one of their last nine matches, suggesting a cautious approach. Betting on “Over 2.5 Total Goals” with odds of 1.78 seems advisable given the potential for goals based on their recent performances.
