What’s at Stake
General Standings Lead
Cruz Azul leads with 35 points, followed by Toluca and América (34) and Tigres (33). The Máquina secures the top spot by winning; if they draw or lose, it opens the door for pursuers.
Last Direct Spot to Liguilla
Chivas needs a point against Monterrey or for Juárez not to win to stay among the top six. Bravos still dreams of direct entry if they win and results combine favorably.
Play-In and Elimination
Pumas, Santos, Atlas, Querétaro, San Luis, and Necaxa still aspire to enter the repechaje. Juárez, Tijuana, and Pachuca are already in the Play-In; León, Mazatlán, and Puebla are eliminated.
Other Key Factors
- Rule of Minors: Cruz Azul requires 2.2 minutes, while Monterrey needs 28.2 to avoid sanctions.
- Individual Scoring: Armando González (Chivas, 11 goals) aims to surpass historical records and secure the title.
- Tigres’ André-Pierre Gignac: He’s one goal away from equaling Sergio Lira as the ninth-highest scorer in Mexican football history.
