07/11/2024 13:12 / Roberto García

With the three points they earned against Santos in their visit to Torreón, Guadalajara secured their ticket to the Final Phase of the Apertura 2024 via the Play In. However, with this victory and the combination of results from the rest of the matches on Matchday 16, Chivas still aspire to get into the top six places in the standings and advance directly to the Quarterfinals, which is why this Saturday's match against Atlético San Luis at the Akron Stadium is of the utmost importance.

What is the Rebaño's scenario for the last date of the AP24?
- Los Rojiblancos are ninth in the standings with 25 points, but with a mathematical possibility of climbing to fourth place in the table. Guadalajara is in the fight for the last direct tickets with Pumas, Monterrey, América, Atlético San Luis and Tijuana.

Position - Team / Points / Goal differential
4.- Pumas / 28 / +7
5.- Monterrey / 28 / +6
6.- América / 27 / +10
7.- San Luis / 27 / +7
8.- Tijuana / 26 / -2
9.- Chivas / 25 / +10
10.- Atlas / 21 / -6
11.- Leon / 18 / -1

Why is the match against San Luis '6 points'?
- This Saturday's clash between Chivas and the team from Potosí is of vital importance for Chiverío, as a win guarantees that they will overtake 'Atleti' in the standings and, due to their good accumulated goal difference, their chances of advancing directly to the next round increase considerably.

What has to happen for the Rebaño to advance directly?
- Chivas has to beat San Luis to reach 28 points and if this victory is combined with defeats by Pumas, Monterrey and América, it would surpass their position on goal difference and would enter directly into the Liguilla. If UNAM and Monterrey win, El Chiverío needs América and Tijuana to draw or lose to stay in sixth place overall.

- If the Rebaño draws with Tijuana, it will reach 26 points and will remain in Play In positions, while waiting to see what happens with Xolos to see if it steals the eighth place overall or remains in ninth place.

- If Guadalajara loses on the last matchday, no one will move them from ninth place overall and they will play the Play In series against the tenth place team in the table, which will be Atlas or León.

How will the teams involved play on Matchday 17?
- Chivas will host Atlético de San Luis on Saturday, November 9.
- Pumas visits Mazatlán on Friday, November 8.
- Rayados hosts León on Sunday, November 10.
- América visits Toluca on Saturday, November 9.
- Xolos hosts Puebla on Sunday, November 10.
