Throughout the 28 meetings that these teams have held in Liga MX, Pachuca has won 15 times while Atlas has only won on 9 occasions, and in those duels, there have only been 2 draws.

The Zorros have an open wound and the culprits are the Tuzos, since, in the 1999 Invierno tournament, both teams met in the semifinals of Mexican soccer, in a match that was ultimately won by Pachuca. 

The first leg ended with a 2-0 score in the match played at the Hidalgo Stadium, in favor of Pachuca, which at that time was coached by Javier Aguirre, while in the second leg, the Zorros, coached by Ricardo Antonio La Volpe, won 1-0, but lost 2-1 on aggregate. 

Therefore, Atlas will seek to avenge this defeat.
