Recent form

Necaxa

Necaxa have shown mixed form in their recent fixtures, displaying resilience with only one defeat in their last six matches. The team have been particularly strong in scoring, netting 1.5 goals per game on average, whilst maintaining a positive goal difference. Their defensive record is respectable, conceding 1.33 goals per game and securing two clean sheets. Notably, Necaxa have been involved in several high-scoring encounters, with 67% of their matches seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring. Their most recent outing, a 3-1 victory over Club Queretaro, exemplifies this trend. The team have also shown an ability to grind out results, with three draws in their last six games, including two consecutive stalemates against Tigres UANL. This mixture of attacking prowess and defensive stability suggests Necaxa are a team capable of competing strongly in the Liga MX.

Atlanta United

Atlanta United are currently experiencing a difficult run of form, having failed to secure a victory in their last seven matches. The team's recent performance has been characterised by a string of three consecutive draws, sandwiched between two losses on either side. Defensively, Atlanta United have been struggling, conceding 13 goals in their last six games, with a particularly heavy 4-0 defeat against New York City FC. Their goal difference of -7 over this period is concerning, as is their average of 2.17 goals conceded per game. Despite these defensive woes, the team have managed to find the back of the net in four of their last six matches, contributing to the fact that both teams scored in 67% of these games. The high-scoring nature of Atlanta United's recent fixtures is evident, with 67% of their last six games seeing over 2.5 goals.

Recent home/away form

Necaxa

Necaxa have shown mixed form at home in their recent fixtures, with three wins, one draw, and two losses in their last six matches. Their goal-scoring prowess is evident, netting an average of 1.83 goals per game, whilst conceding 1.5. A particularly high-scoring affair was their 3-5 defeat against Pachuca, contributing to the impressive statistic of 67% of their matches seeing over 2.5 goals. Necaxa have managed to keep two clean sheets during this period, but both teams have scored in two-thirds of their games, highlighting the entertaining nature of their home fixtures. The team's most recent outing resulted in a 3-1 victory over Club Queretaro, demonstrating their ability to bounce back from previous setbacks and maintain their strong attacking output.

Atlanta United

Atlanta United's recent away form has been underwhelming, with the team failing to secure a victory in their last six matches on the road. The Five Stripes have endured a particularly challenging run, suffering three consecutive losses before steadying the ship with two draws in their most recent outings. Defensively, Atlanta have struggled, conceding 11 goals across these six games, with a notably heavy 4-0 defeat against New York City FC standing out as their worst result. Their attacking prowess has also been lacking, managing to score just three goals during this period, averaging a meagre 0.5 goals per game. Despite these struggles, Atlanta have shown some resilience, keeping one clean sheet and ensuring that two-thirds of their away matches stayed under 2.5 goals, suggesting a more cautious approach in recent fixtures.
