Venados: to strike a blow of authority
Venados de Mérida finished in tenth place with 23 points and had an acceptable season, but their mission is to take the next step and become a leading team, where they have fallen by the wayside in recent weeks. However, as visitors they have had a hard time winning only one game (against Leones Negros, 1-0), drawing four and losing another four.
Atlante: the champion wants to stay alive
Atlante's Potros de Hierro had an irregular season but, in the last game of the championship, defeated Mineros de Zacatecas 2-1 to finish in seventh place. It is worth noting that they finished undefeated at the Azulgrana Stadium with a record of four wins and four draws and, likewise, they will recover Jonathan Sánchez and Ramiro Costa, who did not play in the last game due to suspension.
The Kick-off
The Atlante vs Venados match will be played at the Ciudad de los Deportes Stadium, in Mexico City, Mexico. The kick-off is scheduled at 6:00 pm ET.
