Quarter finals
In the quarter-finals there will be the two city derbies that take place outside the capital in the highest Mexican division (the older Clásico Tapatío and the younger Clásico Regiomontano ), while no club from Mexico City (neither America nor Cruz Azul or UNAM Pumas ) could qualify for the Liguillas . While the Tigres clearly prevailed 6-1 in the derby, the eleven-time champions Chivas Guadalajara reached the semi-finals after a 1-1 overall result against Atlas only because of the better table position in the league round.
