Atlas started the 2022 Clausura Final with a 2-0 win at home in the first leg. It was a score that flattered the home team, as Pachuca had spells of domination and might have done enough for a tie, but a good defensive effort from Atlas has them in prime position to win their second title in as many seasons. Atlas now goes to Pachuca with a two goal cushion, as they try to become the third team to win a Bicampeonato since the short tournaments started after Pumas in 2004 and Leon in 2014.
The first half started with both teams having their best eleven, with Atlas even getting back Emanuel Aguilera, who left their semifinals because of injury.
