Necaxa is displaying decidedly better form, earning 10 points in the last 5 matches (3 wins, 1 draw, 1 loss), whereas Atlas has secured only 4 points in this period. The hosts hold a clear advantage in home fixtures with a 33% win rate and a positive goal difference (+2), while Atlas wins only 10% of their away matches and holds a disastrous balance of -13 goals. xG statistics also favor Necaxa (1.81 xG For vs 1.31 xG Against at home), compared to Atlas's poor away numbers (0.88 xG For vs 1.77 xG Against). Atlas has not kept a clean sheet in any away match and fails to score in 50% of their outings on foreign soil. Considering all these factors, Necaxa has a realistic chance of victory, although Atlas may put up resistance, justifying a moderate probability of a draw.
