Liguilla

The eight best teams play two games against each other on a home-and-away basis. The higher seeded teams play on their home field during the second leg. The winner of each match up is determined by aggregate score. In the quarterfinals and semifinals, if the two teams are tied on aggregate and on away goals, the higher seeded team advances.[12] In the final, if the two teams are tied after both legs, the match goes to extra time and, if necessary, a penalty shoot-out.

Torneo Clausura

The Clausura 2020 season began on 4 January 2020. This tournament was played with only 18 teams due to the disaffiliation of Veracruz.

On 15 March 2020, the Mexican Football Federation suspended the Clausura seasons of Liga MX, Ascenso MX and Liga MX Femenil indefinitely due to the coronavirus pandemic.[13]

On 22 May 2020 the season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. No champion was crowned.[14]

Liguilla

The eight best teams play two games against each other on a home-and-away basis. The higher seeded teams play on their home field during the second leg. The winner of each match up is determined by aggregate score. In the quarterfinals and semifinals, if the two teams are tied on aggregate and on away goals, the higher seeded team advances.[15] In the final, if the two teams are tied after both legs, the match goes to extra time and, if necessary, a penalty shoot-out.
