If the semester ends at this moment, the four qualified directly to the league they would be Monterrey, America, Toluca and Chivas. In the case of those eliminated, only the Cañoneros already said goodbye to any possibility while Querétaro, despite being thirteenth and having a chance of a play-off, could not play having finished in last place in the table of quotients. To this we must add that the Rayos no longer have much chance of being in the playoffs.
Now, this would be the repechage so far. La Fiera would face Pumas in the Nou Camp StadiumPachuca would receive Atlético San Luis in the Hidalgo Stadiumthe U of Nuevo León would collide against Santos Laguna in the Volcano and Cruz Azul would do the honors to the Rojinegros in the Aztec stadiumalthough things could change drastically at the end of the day.
CLASH OF BIG IN THE MX LEAGUE! ??

Third place Toluca against the already almost eliminated Juarez Braves and Santos Laguna, tenth, against the eliminated Gallos Blancos.
