What does Cruz Azul need to be the general leader of the Clausura 2024 of Liga MX?

The Cruz Azul Football Club managed to win 0-1 at the last minute on Matchday 15 during their visit to Club Puebla with a penalty goal from Uriel AntunaIn this way, the Celeste Machine still aspires to be the general leader of the 2024 Liga MX Clausura Tournament classification.

However, it will not be easy at all, since the situation is quite close, because just as they can aspire to be the general leader, they could also be left out of the first six places in the classification that advance to the Liguilla directly.

In this way, it must be clarified that on their own, the cement team only has to play two more matches in the regular phase, that is to say that, at most, they will be able to add six more units, so they currently have 29 points in fifteen days, as a result of nine wins, two draws and four losses, as well as a goal difference of 12, can reach up to 35 points.

It is worth mentioning that Matchday 15 is still active and is going to move a lot with the remaining matches. With all that, we mention some factors that will have to occur so that the La Noria team can conclude the tournament as the general leader.

Firstly, the Machine has to do its job and win its two remaining games against Atlas and Toluca, as well as try to maintain the best possible goal difference.

Once doing its homework, it still depends on the results of Toluca, América, Monterrey and Necaxa, the first three have three games left to play and the Rayos only one. So any of them can still surpass them.

Even Tigres UANL and Querétaro can also compete with them until the end to surpass them depending on the combination of results, in this way, being able to predict what will still happen is very complicated, since many things can change with 2-3 dates remaining.

However, the Machine is on the right track and regardless of the fact that it is not up to them to be general leaders, it is up to them to stay in the first six places in the classification and thus avoid playing the Play-In.
