22 Aug
Summary
- Tigres UANL has a poor start with one point in four Liga MX matches.
- The team struggles defensively, conceding 10 goals, the second-most.
- Tigres remains unbeaten in Leagues Cup but won all matches via penalties.
Mexican giants Tigres UANL will take on Atlante this Friday night in a Liga MX soccer match. Tigres UANL has experienced a challenging start to their Liga MX Apertura season, currently occupying 16th place in the standings with a single point after four games.
While Tigres has managed to score six goals, their defense has been a significant concern, having conceded 10 goals, which is the second-highest total in Liga MX. This defensive fragility was evident in their recent 2-1 loss to Atlas.
In contrast, Tigres has demonstrated better form in the Leagues Cup, where they are yet to lose. However, all three of their victories in this competition have been secured through penalty shootouts against MLS opponents.
Atlante has also faced difficulties in the Apertura season, currently sitting 13th in the league table with five points from four matches. Their recent Liga MX fixture resulted in a 0-0 draw against Toluca. Atlante's performance in the Leagues Cup was less successful, with a single victory followed by losses to Real Salt Lake and Minnesota United.
