The importance of this match is very significant because both teams divide the fans of Guadalajara and despite Chivas' superiority in titles, the rivalry is more important for the fans of these clubs.

Who has won the Clasico Tapatio on more occasions?

In total, both teams have faced each other 231 times in all their competitions, in which it has been seen that Chivas are in the lead in the Clasico Tapatio.

This is because out of those 231 duels, Chivas have won 93 Clasicos, compared to 70 wins for Atlas and 68 draws, taking into account the data of all the competitions in which both clubs have faced each other. 

Although in recent times, Atlas has been in better shape, is going through an excellent moment in Mexican soccer, and has just become champion of the tournament, ending a title drought that lasted more than 70 years.

For their part, the last championship won by Chivas was in 2017, when Matías Almeyda led them to conquer their 12th title, with which they were able to become champions again after 12 years of not having touched the Liga MX trophy.

In the case of Club Deportivo Guadalajara, the last time before 2017 that they won the league was in the Apertura 2006, while for Atlas, the last time before the Apertura 2021 that they won the title was in 1951. 

Therefore, Chivas has fared much better in the subject of titles however, in the Clásico Tapatío goals also matter so it is important to see which club has scored more goals in these duels. 

Which team scored more goals in the Clásico Tapatío?

Here the difference increases considerably between one team and the other since while the Rebaño Sagrado has scored 371 goals in these duels, the Zorros have scored 321 goals, which means they are surpassed by 50 goals by Chivas. 

And it is worth remembering that just in this Clausura 2022 Tournament there was a Clásico Tapatío in which the match ended in a 1-1 draw, and in the duel, there were 3 expulsions.

Miguel Ángel Ponce was sent off for Chivas, while Jairo Torres and Julián Andrés Quiñones were sent off for Atlas, as a sign of how intense this Clasico tends to be.
