Tigres are currently in a deep slump and sit in an unfamiliar 16th place in the table. The team have picked up just one point in three matches, drawing once and suffering two defeats while conceding eight goals. Problems in the defensive line are preventing the high-profile club from converting their rich attacking potential into wins. Away from home, the tigers are forced to play more cautiously in order to contain their own defensive lapses. The coaching staff urgently need to sort out the defence, otherwise climbing off the bottom of the table will be extremely difficult.

⭐ Editor's Pick
Atlas this season prefer balanced and cautious football without unnecessary risk. Tigres, after a run of poor results and eight goals conceded, will be forced to focus on sorting out their own defence. The visitors are unlikely to push forward from the first minutes, wary of being caught by a sharp counter-attack from the hosts. Meetings between these two sides often turn into a tight positional battle across every area of the pitch. Given the high pressure to get a result and the caution of both teams, the match is unlikely to treat fans to high scoring. We're backing total under 2.5 goals and predicting a scoreline of 0:1.
