Everything seems to indicate that the stars are beginning to line up for the Pumas UNAM team to enter the Liga MX play-off at the last minute. After a bad tournament where they were in the lower part of the classification, now they do not know defeat and they have the candles lit to be able to obtain a place in the playoffs.

While it is true that there are no longer any possibilities to enter the league directly, there is still hope of getting into the playoffs. What those led by coach Andrés Lillini need is to add at least 4 points of 9 remaining.
The teams that Pumas will be facing are: Pachuca, Santos Laguna and Cruz Azul. It must be remembered that the game against the Warriors is pending on matchday 11, which will be played on Thursday, November 4.
Currently the university students have 17 points and are ranked number 14. A victory and a draw would help them get the 21 points necessary to enter the repechage. That is, the cats could afford to lose one of the three matches to be played.
One of the advantages it has Cougars, is that of those three games, two of them will be on the field of the Olympic University Stadium, so their only exit will be against the Tuzos del Pachuca on the following day.
Without a doubt, having scored three victories in a row helped increase their hopes of being able to enter the reclassification. If given, they could be one of the black horses of the contest.
