Necaxa vs Atlas: Crucial Liga MX Matchup for Play-In Spot

The highly anticipated match between Necaxa and Atlas in the Liga MX Apertura 2024 is set to take place on Sunday, November 10, 2024, at the Estadio Victoria in Aguascalientes, Mexico. This matchup is critical for Atlas, as a win would secure their spot in the Play-In phase of the tournament.

Atlas, currently in 10th place with 21 points, is under significant pressure to win this game. If they fail to secure a victory and León wins their match against Monterrey, Atlas will be eliminated from the next phase of the Apertura 2024. The team is coming off a hard-fought draw against Cruz Azul, which kept their hopes alive.

Necaxa, on the other hand, has nothing to lose but can still impact the standings with a win. They have had a tough recent run, with losses against Pachuca, Toluca, Chivas, and Tijuana. Despite their current 12th place in the league, Necaxa can still spoil Atlas’s chances.

The match will be broadcast live on Canal 5, TUDN, and available through the streaming service VIX+. Fans can also follow the game through live updates and match analysis on Mediotiempo.

Betting odds favor Atlas slightly, with Necaxa at +150, a draw at +195, and Atlas at +195. However, these odds are subject to change as the game approaches and during the match itself.

Historically, the head-to-head record between the two teams shows that in their last 18 meetings, Necaxa has won 7 times, Atlas has won 5 times, and 6 matches have ended in a draw. This statistical balance adds to the anticipation and unpredictability of the upcoming match[6]).
