With 6 points to go, Chivas is depending on itself to fulfill its goal of qualifying directly to the Liguilla of the Clausura 2024. The closing of the tournament promises many emotions, as El Rebaño will play its last two matches in Guadalajara, in addition to the fact that several of the teams with which it is competing for the possibility of advancing directly to the Quarterfinals will play against each other.
In order to avoid confusion and resolve all doubts, we will tell you what the Red and White team needs to do to be in the top 6 of the standings and avoid the Play In stage.
What is the scenario for Chivas at the close of CL24?
- Chivas will host Querétaro at Akron Stadium on Matchday 16. If they beat Los Gallos, they would have 28 points and are aiming for sixth place in the standings. For that to happen, they need a draw between Tigres and Necaxa, who play against each other on this same date, and for Pachuca to lose against Santos in Torreón.
** If the Rebaño wins by 4 goals and this combination of results occurs, they could climb to fifth place overall due to a better goal difference with respect to Necaxa.
- In the event of a draw against Los Emplumados, Guadalajara would have 26 points and would be in a much more vulnerable position, as it would depend on the results of Tigres, Pachuca and Pumas, and could move up to seventh place or drop to ninth.
- Should El Rebaño unfortunately lose to Querétaro, it would be overtaken by Los Gallos and would be at the mercy of UNAM, and could drop to tenth place in the overall standings.
