Querétarois one of the teams that has been consistently in the last places for several tournaments now, with only twelve points the Gallos Blancos are in sixteenth position, although the team has a good roster they are not able to get victories, in this tournament they are the team that has the most ties which has helped them not to be lower in the table, however together with Juárez they are one of the teams that have only two victories, the playoffs do not seem so far away, however, it would no longer depend entirely on them if they do not win as soon as possible, the Gallos Blancos de Querétaro lost the support of their fans in the stadium and playing at home no longer gives them any advantage, with four games left for the end of the season they must risk more to seek victory and be in the playoffs, otherwise they will be saying goodbye in a bad way as the team will be sold and probably change city.

Santos Laguna prior to the start of the tournament was a team that promised a lot because of the quality of the players on the roster and because Caixinha was returning to lead them, the start of the tournament was very complicated and the results were not as expected, the team lost to Montreal in the Concacaf Champions League and their coach was dismissed, with that change they had an improvement since they were not defeated until this last matchday where they lost to Rayados by the minimum, Currently they are in the thirteenth position with fifteen points, in order to qualify for the playoffs, Santos needs to obtain as many points as possible in the rest of their matches so as not to depend on other teams, the calendar does not look so complicated so if they do not qualify it will be entirely due to things they failed to do, Querétaro is a rival that is not going through a good moment and could win at home.
