The Strip wants to ensure its direct ticket to the quarterfinals, while the ‘Cañoneros’ want to avoid paying the fine in the quotient table.
In that context, the Strip is forced to win to remain in the third position. In case of any other result, it will depend on what happens in the rest of the matches of the day so as not to be left out of the first 4 of the Clausura 2022 classification.
