Nico Díaz spoke before this match: "If we play as we did against Cruz Azul, we can get the victory against Atlas, on a very complicated field like the Jalisco. For our part, we are preparing with everything we have to be able to compete with them on equal terms.

"We must counter their (Atlas') style of play, which is direct with Julio Furch and Julián Quiñones, who are very good strikers, surprise them with intensity and plays through the middle, in order to be able to aspire to cut that winless streak away from home."

"It's more a matter of concentration, luck has not worked in our favor, with Cruz Azul we conceded a goal on the first play, so that's what we need and against Atlas it will be, as I said, very complicated to try to keep a clean sheet in our goal".

Javier Abella spoke prior to this important match: "It is a very complicated and complex issue. Maybe it seems easy, but when you don't play, it's a little bit difficult on a daily basis because you feel that you don't contribute something. But it's not like that, the players, wherever they are, always contribute something. If it is on the field he is satisfied because he contributes his playing conditions to the team, there are times when it is not like that and we must support from the bench and communicate what you see from the outside. It is not easy, but the player wants to be there every game and show what he can do. If it is complicated, it becomes a little tiring day by day and you don't play. But everyone's support is important, because we all win".
