The regular season of the Clausura 2025 is closing with one of the most exciting matches in Liga MX: the Clásico Tapatío. This edition of the derby to be played in Guadalajara has a special flavor, as it offers a ticket to the Play In.
Atlas no longer has chances to qualify for the playoffs, unlike Chivas, who is looking to enter the final stage. This situation allows the Zorros to spoil their rival’s aspirations and deny them a spot in the Liguilla once again.

How are Atlas and Chivas faring heading into the match?
Atlas comes into the game after a positive result, having won their last match against Querétaro. Goals were scored by Carlos Orrantia and Uros Djurdjevic.
However, they have been ruled out of the Play In after Pumas secured a victory, which mathematically eliminated Atlas. On top of this, the team will face a financial penalty for being one of the three worst teams in the table.
