Liga MX Apertura 2018 Liguilla: What to Watch For During Jornada 17

Three days. Nine games. One weekend. That’s how much time is left in the Liga MX Apertura regular season. Some teams are prepping for the playoffs, others are still hoping to get in and others are already looking forward to next season. Whatever the case, this is the time of year when things get interesting. Here’s what to watch for during the last Jornada before the liguilla.

There are five teams guaranteed to be in the liguilla: Cruz Azul, America, Pumas, Santos and Monterrey.

Two teams are basically in, but not mathematically guaranteed: Tigres and Toluca.
