The Eagles have to face Tijuana y Tigerswhom he will seek to defeat to close at a good pace, but without a doubt his sights will be on recovering the players he has injured, among them Julián Quiñones, who could not even play the fourteenth matchday against Rayados, facing the league.

Once the regular phase ends, the capital team will have to wait for the so-called play-In to be played to find out its rival and fight to win one more championship in its history and one of the objectives it could have in its sights is to impose marks the most points in the current format, since León is the one with the most units with a total of 41.

Pumas adds 22 units, the same as it has San Luis Athleticwhich is in sixth place due to its best goal difference, so they will have to apply themselves fully in their remaining matches, which will be against Atlas y Chivasif they want to reach the Liguilla or at least stay in the play-in zone.

If the Auriazules win one game and tie another, they also have a chance of a direct place in the Liguilla, if the combination of results occurs, but if they fall in one and tie another, they run the risk of even being left out of the second phase, because it only has three points ahead of the tenth and eleventh places that are occupied by Mazatlan FC y Pachucasince both have 19 units.

Blue Cross
