Atlante FC host Club Leon at Estadio Azteca, Mexico City (relocated there on promotion — see note) on Friday, August 28 (9:00 PM ET / 8:00 PM CT / 6:00 PM PT).
There’s no fresh team news to flag for either side heading into this one, so the shape of both lineups points toward the players already carrying the goal threat. Eugenio Pizzuto leads Atlante FC’s scoring with 2 goals and has racked up 4 chances created, with Jhojan Julio (1 goal, 8 chances created) and Luis Calzadilla (1 goal, 6 shots on target from 12 attempts) both in line to feature again. For Club Leon, Daniel Arcila arrives as the sharpest of the group with 3 goals from 14 shots, and Jordi Cortizo (2 goals, 8 chances created) should be expected to support him once more.

Atlante FC vs Club Leon Prediction
Signal’s model has this as a tight, low-scoring affair, and the numbers back that reading – Atlante FC have kept things level in both home games shown here, while Club Leon’s own defeats have arrived by the odd goal, 1-0 at Tijuana. With Eugenio Pizzuto Atlante’s most reliable source of goals on 2 already this term, the pick is a narrow 1-0 win for Atlante FC at Estadio Azteca.
