Broadcast info
Who's playing? Chivas will face a couple of high-profile matches within the next two weeks, and they will kick off that series of games against their neighbours Atlas. The red-and-white team has struggled to make its presence felt up front, as they managed to win their most recent game against Santos.
On the other hand, the red-and-black crew will want to keep the party going by beating their most hated opponent. This year marks Atlas' Centennial, and one of the best gifts they can give to their fans is, without a doubt, beating "El Rebaño" on Saturday.
What time? Saturday, August 20, at 19:00 PDT/ 21:00 CDT/ 22:00 EDT.
What stadium? Chivas Stadium, formerly known as Omnilife stadium. The 5-year-old stadium can accomodate up to 49,000 fans, and will be hosting its 8th-ever Clásico Tapatio.
On which channels?
- In Mexico, on Chivas TV
- In the U.S., on Univisión USA, Univisión Deportes USA & fuboTV.

Team news
The hosts celebrated their usual Media Day, and they had some quite interesting thoughts to share about their opponent. But perhaps the more relevant news for their loyal fanbase living in Mexico was that there are still some tickets available to witness the game at Chivas' Stadium.

On the other hand, their opponents pointed out that their goalkeeper Oscar Ustari, who joined the team a year ago, was already involved with their colours after wearing one of their jerseys when he was barely 16 years old.
