    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, the higher seeded team advances. In the final, if the two teams are tied after both legs, the match goes to a penalty shoot-out.

    Torneo Clausura

    The Torneo Clausura 2024 will be the second tournament of the season. The tournament will begin in January 2024.

    Aggregate table

    The aggregate table (the sum of points of both the Apertura 2023 and Clausura 2024 tournaments) will be used to determine seeds in the Campeón de Campeones.
