León Apertura 2026 liguilla qualification scenarios, Digi Mart USA News: Liga MX is in its final matchdays, and several teams are still fighting for the last playoff places in the standings ahead of the Apertura 2026 liguilla.
León currently sits in eighth place in the overall table with 22 points. With two matchdays remaining, the club can still reach up to 28 points, which could lift it as high as fourth place, but it must finish strongly or risk elimination.
Winning both of its remaining matches would secure León’s place in the liguilla, regardless of results for the teams below it. If León wins one match and loses or draws the other, it will need the teams below it to collect no more than four points combined; if they take six points, León will be eliminated.
If León draws both remaining matches, the teams below it must collect no more than two points combined. If León fails to win either match, it will need the teams beneath it to earn no points at all, since any single point gained by one of them would knock León out.
León faces Chivas on Sunday, November 8, and closes the tournament against Santos on November 21. Both matches will decide whether the club earns a place in the Apertura 2026 liguilla.
