ATL to LHR, Delta One 767-300, 9:21p dep, 9:45a arr

I'm not wedded to this date and would actually prefer to arrive a day earlier, but when I originally booked, leaving earlier meant spending a lot more miles.

I checked today and found a flight leaving one day earlier for the same amount of miles:

LAX to ATL, First Class 767-400, 2:15p dep, 9:34p arr
-- 1h 11m layover --
ATL to LHR, Delta One 767-300, 10:45p dep, 11:10a arr

Should I switch to this flight? I'd love to arrive a day earlier so I have more time in London before moving on, but I am concerned about only having an hour to change planes (though the MCT is only ~50 min). FWIW, I am flying solo and don't plan on having a carry-on beyond a personal item. I also don't mind the idea of chilling in a lounge for a few hours, so the long layover on my current flight isn't a problem for me.
