Correct score prediction: Pumas UNAM 0-0 Atlas
Pumas UNAM recorded a goalless tie not too long ago. The match versus Chivas Guadalajara on the 3rd of November was a goalless snozefest and we consider this a plus in favor of our chief Atlas vs Pumas UNAM prediction. Alongside the fact that 50.0% of the last 10 meetings between Pumas and Atlas had 0-0 on the scoreboard.

*These Pumas UNAM vs Atlas odds are subject to change
According to the bookmakers, Pumas UNAM have the three points up for grabs, as they have a thrilling 53.1% win probability before the start of the game. However, we don’t think this will be an interesting event, as we expect to see under 0.5 goals at Estadio Universitario. The odds are valued at +150, giving our primary Atlas vs Pumas UNAM prediction a massive 40.00% chance of success.

Pumas UNAM team news and form: Pumas UNAM’s manager will count on the best
Pumas UNAM are favored by the experts but they fail to realize that coach Gustavo Lema doesn’t have pleasant memories from his games against Atlas. With a negative 0-1-1 record, we find it difficult to believe he will be able to find a way to beat his opponent this week.
Predicted lineup: Nevarez (GK), Natan, Bennevendo, Magallan, Duare, Ergas, Quispe, Caicedo, Lopez, Ruvalcaba & Martinez

Player to watch: Eduardo Aguirre
If anyone has the chance to disprove our top Atlas vs Pumas UNAM predictions, it’s likely Eduardo Aguirre. Atlas’ goalscorer-in-chief bagged four goals since the start of the season but we have our doubts whether or not he has the right stuff to score one past Pumas’ shot-stopper.
Second player to watch: Raymundo Fulgencio
Fulgencio is the top assists-creator for the visitors. Since the start of the 2024/25 Liga MX campaign, he supplied teammates with four assists. Will he get minutes against Pumas? Only time will tell.
