Atlas vs Santos Laguna Prediction

Atlas have started their season with two successive draws and will be looking to register their first win of the season here. They struggled in home games towards the end of last season and have won just one of their last eight home games in front of their fans (five losses). Furthermore, they have won just one of the last six head-to-head games, albeit with that win coming in the most recent clash between the two sides.

Santos Laguna finished fourth from bottom in the Clausura and lost four of their final five league games (one draw). Things have not improved this term but their games have continued to be compact.

We are backing the home side to claim maximum points with a narrow win in addition to a clean sheet.

Prediction: Atlas 1-0 Santos Laguna
