The traditional club Club León , which had won the second division championship in the previous season, returned to the Primera División after ten years of abstinence and won its opening game at the Gallos Blancos Querétaro on Saturday, July 21, with goals from Hernán Dario (in the 3rd Minute by penalty) and Edwin Hernández (90th + 1 minute) with 2-0. This success of the visiting team, which was unexpected from the home team's point of view, led to violence by the fans of Querétaro, which according to a report they were incited by their own players, in particular Luis Ángel Landín , whereupon the club was sanctioned with a heavy fine.
In the semi-finals, the two promoted teams of the past two seasons (Tijuana and León) face each other

Because Querétaro FC, who finished eighth in the 2013 Clausura, were relegated to the second division at the end of the season, they were not allowed to participate in the Liguillas according to the rules. In his place played the ninth place CF Monterrey. So there were two local derbies in the quarter-finals : CF Monterrey against Tigres from the greater Monterrey area and Pumas against America from Mexico City .

For the third time after 1971/72, when Cruz Azul won the championship with a 4-1 final victory, and in 1988/89, when America prevailed 3-2 and 2-2, there was a Clásico Joven in the final . After a 1-0 home win and a 1-0 lead in the second leg, Cruz Azul's team already looked like the sure winner when América with late goals from Aquivaldo Mosquera (89th) and goalkeeper Moisés Muñoz (90th + 3th) ) the game could still turn and saved himself to penalties . In the same, the Americanistas prevailed with 4: 2 and won their eleventh championship title, so that they are again together with their arch rival Chivas Guadalajara the record champions of the Mexican league.
