Key Atlas vs Tigres UANL Prediction & Betting Tips
Atlas will host the multimillion Tigres UANL squad in a dire attempt to snatch a point or two on the 19th of February.
Contents
Nicolas Ibanez to Score Anytime
It’s time for the 2nd-most productive striker to start doing his job at Tigres UANL. He joined Tigres UANL’s ranks after a massive €10.10m bid to his former team Santos Laguna and while he already opened his goalscoring tab with his new club, there’s still room for improvement.
Our key Atlas vs Tigres UANL prediction for this week is for Nicolas Ibanez to slide it past the goalkeeper at least once. It’s about time he starts performing at a higher level. After all, he has only himself to blame for putting the bar so high. With 19 goals to his name this season, the expectations are sky-high.
Tigres UANL to Win
Tigres UANL and Club America are the only two clubs that are undefeated in the Clausura race so far. With five victories and two draws in the Clausura campaign so far, Tigres UANL are eager to get the ball rolling on Sunday as they smell blood pouring from Atlas’ fresh wounds.
The visitors haven’t won a single game in the last five fixtures and there seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel for coach Benjamin Mora’s boys. Will the 42-year-old manager succeed in winning points on Saturday? Our Atlas vs Tigres UANL prediction says “no”.

Predicted Lineups, Team News, and Last Result
Atlas
Despite Atlas besting Monterrey on the pitch for the better part of 90 minutes on the 10th of February, it was the visitors who won 0-2. Atlas had more possession, more shots at target, and better chances, yet poor finishing costed Benjamin Mora the three points leaving Atlas with four draws and one loss in the last five league matches.
Predicted lineup – Vargas (GK), Santamaria, Nervo, Aguirre, Abella, Lozano, Rocha, Reyes, Martinez, Furch & Quinones
Tigres UANL
Tigres UANL’s board spent enough money on transfer fees this year. Coach Marco Antonio Ruiz’s first game in charge of Tigres UANL was on the 15th of February and it was a tad disappointing, to say the least. A goalless tie against Juarez can only be described as a failure but we have to give credit where it’s due – Tigres UANL were the better on the pitch and it’s no wonder we fancy them to win on the 19th of February, as you previously saw in our Atlas vs Tigres UANL predictions.
Predicted lineup – Guzman (GK), Garza, Reyes, Samir, Angulo, Gorriaran, Carioca, Pizarro, Quinones, Gignac & Ibanez

Player to Watch: Andre-Pierre Gignac
Tigres UANL’s veteran up front has been a real delight this season. Much like he was during the 2021/22 campaign. Andre-Pierre Gignac is the only one who can take down Club America’s Henry Martin from the throne in the goalscoring race. With 16 goals to his name, he’s trailing by six as Henry Martin is pulling ahead but we’re confident that he’ll have a solid performance on the 19th of February against this old acquaintance.
