The top of the 2024 Clausura Tournament has been very close, after fifteen days played, no team has yet managed to complete its participation in the Liguilla and it is worth remembering that the first four qualifying places go directly to the Liguilla, that is, to the quarterfinals and will wait for their rival who will emerge from the Play-In in which places five to twelve will be disputed.
In this way, due to the evenness of the area above, it cannot yet be said that any team has already secured its place among the first four and so far fifth place could displace first place.
Although it is true that Club América is the one who seems to be the favorite to be the leader of the classification, since in fifteen games they have only lost one chance and have eight consecutive games without losing in Liga MX, we will have to wait at least one day more to see if he can now be an official guest to the Liguilla.
As if that were not enough, they have just beaten the tournament leaders (Red Devils) 5-1 and it is already a fact that they are the favorite candidates for the championship and thus achieve the long-awaited two-time championship.

With two matches left in the regular phase and each team having played 17 games, the azulcrema team only needs one point to ensure its permanence in the Liguilla and with a win it practically secures the leadership, since it has a wide advantage over the rest on goal difference.
Meanwhile, the Águilas hope to win their two remaining games, with 32 points they want to reach 38, since their last rivals will be Pumas UNAM and Club Puebla.
On the other hand, from places 5 to 10 they still have hope of at least getting among the best four places (Necaxa, Pachuca, Tigres UANL, Chivas, Pumas and Querétaro, respectively), although to be more realistic the dispute will be more between the place five and eight.
That is to say, Necaxa, Pachuca, Tigres UANL and Chivas will still fight for one of the places in Toluca, Monterrey and Cruz Azul, to get straight into the 'Fiesta Grande'.
Meanwhile, the rest of the clubs are looking for a place in the Play-In or are eliminated from the competition.
