The Rojinegros gained a crucial edge over Chivas ahead of the Clausura 2023 quarterfinals, with the two archrivals meeting in a key playoff showdown.
Both Atlas and Chivas opened the Liguilla in the portion of the tournament that culminates the season, confronting each other on Thursday, May 11, 2023, at Estadio Jalisco in Guadalajara as part of the Clausura 2023 quarterfinals path.
In a fresh edition of this storied rivalry, the Atlas squad from the Benjamin Mora academy took a 1-0 lead against a Chivas side that struggled to find clear ideas at times in Jalisco. The Serbian coach Veljko Paunovic watched his players endure long stretches of quiet as they sought to spark a response, while Atlas also failed to extend the advantage. The result leaves the tie finely balanced and decides the final outcome next Sunday on the field of Estadio Akron for a place in the semi-finals of the championship.
