With two matchdays remaining in the Liga MX Apertura season, the title race and playoff picture remain wide open. Club America lead Chivas Guadalajara and Cruz Azul only on goal difference, while Atlas sit two points behind in a surprise challenge.
Club America boast the league's best attack, spearheaded by Henry Martin, but have faltered recently, going winless in their last three matches including a loss to Pachuca. Pachuca are led by the league's top scorer, Salomon Rondon. America face a tricky matchup against Pumas this weekend.
At the other end of the table, the final four playoff spots are up for grabs, with teams from fifth to 11th separated by few points. Only four teams have been mathematically eliminated. Monterrey, the third-highest spenders, risk missing the playoffs for the first time since 2016. They travel to face Toluca on Saturday needing a win to keep their hopes alive under manager Matias Almeyda.
Key fixtures this weekend include Atlas vs Pachuca, Tigres vs Cruz Azul, Toluca vs Monterrey, and Pumas vs Club America, all broadcast on CBS Sports Golazo Network.
