How to Watch Atlas vs. Chivas on TV, Live Stream: Liga MX Clasico Tapatio

Atlas will host Chivas at the Estadio Jalisco on Saturday night in the latest chapter of one of the most traditional rivalries in all of Mexican soccer: El Clásico Tapatío.

The two historic clubs from the city of Guadalajara have formed a bitter rivalry ever since their first meeting in 1996. Chivas have always been the big brother in the city rivalry, but this decade Atlas have enjoyed the success, winning back-to-back Liga MX titles in 2021–22 and eliminating their arch rivals twice in the playoffs.

Chivas once again arrives to the clash as the favorites. Gabriel Milito’s side are desperate to rebound after losing consecutive games to relinquish the top spot in the standings having enjoyed a perfect run through the opening six games of the term.

Atlas, meanwhile, have quietly had a strong start to the term and are currently sixth, just two points back of Los Rojiblancos. The Estadio Jalisco will be packed full of Rojinegro supporters as they aim to deliver their best result of the term against their rival neighbors.

Passion, intensity and unfiltered hate will be on display on the pitch. With both sides motivated to earn bragging rights in the city, here’s how you can watch Atlas vs. Chivas in the latest chapter of El Clásico Tapatío on Saturday night.
