Atlas Seeks Victory: Breaking Toluca’s Winning Streak at Jalisco Stadium
Atlas faces a critical match against Toluca as they seek to end the Diablos’ winning streak at Jalisco Stadium. The team is still alive in the Apertura 2025 but must secure victory in their remaining two matches to advance. Their upcoming challenge is formidable, given their poor record against Toluca.
Breaking Toluca’s Winning Streak
Atlas has not beaten Toluca in a regular-season match since Apertura 2018, when they won 2-0. Goals from Jefferson Duque and Ulises Cardona secured that victory. Since then, Atlas has struggled significantly against the Diablos Rojos.
Recent Performance Overview
- Timeframe since last win: 7 years.
- Matches played since: 6.
- Victories for Toluca: 3.
- Draws: 3.
- Exception: Atlas won 2-1 in the 2019-2020 Copa MX but was eliminated after the second leg.
The most recent encounter occurred in the Clausura 2025, where Atlas fell 2-3, despite already being eliminated from contention. Paulinho, the standout player for Toluca, scored a remarkable hat-trick, contributing towards his bid for a second consecutive top scorer title.
Current Standings and Goals
As it stands, Paulinho has accumulated 11 goals in the season, tying with Joao Pedro and surpassing Armando González from Chivas. Should he secure the scoring title again, he will make history as the first player to achieve three consecutive golden boot awards in short tournaments.
Fans are eagerly anticipating how Atlas will perform against an imposing Toluca side. The need for victory is pressing, putting immense pressure on the rojinegros to succeed.
