Rayados are the odd men out in the semifinals, and Wednesday's first leg will be critical if they're going to knock off No. 1 seed Cruz Azul
Monterrey is the odd team out in the Liga MX semifinals. You can see that just by looking at a map.
In addition to being the only team from outside Mexico City to make the semifinals, Rayados also are the only team that pulled an upset in the first round. Their opponent Wednesday, Cruz Azul, is the one seed, and the two and three seeds, America and Pumas, are in the other semifinal.
