With matchday 13 already over and matchday 14 underway, there are only 3 games left for each team in this Torneo Clausura of the Liga MX 2022, 3 games that must be played as a grand final if they want to stay alive in the championship and fight for the pass to the Liguilla.
All the teams that are at the top of the table of positions know that these are the 3 most important days of the entire tournament and that if they make a mistake, it could cost them several positions in the table and, in consequence, go to the playoffs to be able to access the Liguilla. This is specifically concerning for Puebla and Monterrey, who are the teams that have it harder to stay within the first 4 places.
This day 15 of the Torneo Clausura of the Liga MX will be a heart attack since we will have high-voltage matches between the best teams in the league.

The emotions of this Torneo Clausura of the Liga MX 2022 continue, and with it, we will have a great game between two teams that are playing at a very similar level and that, despite being in completely different situations in the standings, need to add 3 points in each of the games to ensure their presence, at least, in the playoffs. Next Thursday, April 21, 2022, Querétaro receives Cruz Azul at La Corregidora Stadium.
Cruz Azul seemed to have increased their level of play and that they could fight for the top four places in the table, but in recent days they have shown that their players are not at 100% and that, although they can still finish among the first 4, they don’t seem in condition to make a good Liguilla. On the other hand, Querétaro has had a very bad season, something that goes hand in hand with what happened several weeks ago in their stadium. They are in position #16 in the table and their level of play has been really bad.
Cruz Azul vs. Querétaro Betting Pick: Cruz Azul

The best match that we can enjoy on matchday 15 of the Torneo Clausura of the Liga MX 2022 is, without a doubt, the one that Pachuca and Puebla will play next Tuesday, April 19, 2022, at the Miguel Hidalgo “Huracán” Stadium. This match will be definitive for any of the teams that take the victory and their aspirations to qualify directly for the next Liguilla.
Pachuca has been one of the most consistent teams in this Closing Tournament, they have shown that their soccer level is above the rest of the teams and that it is only a matter of time to make their presence official in the Liguilla. Pachuca has a cushion of 6 points over third place and, if they achieve 2 victories, they would be mathematically assuring their classification.
On the other hand, Puebla started the season with their foot on the accelerator, but, in the last 4 games, their level of play has declined, and, out of 12 points they have played, they have managed to add only 2, hence the danger they run currently to go down in the standings and qualify for the playoffs.
Pachuca vs. Puebla Betting Pick: Pachuca
Liga MX Matchday 15: Necaxa vs. Tigres UANL
When: Tuesday, April 19 at 08:00 pm ET
Moneyline odds: Necaxa +240 / Tigres UANL +111 (Source: MyBookie.ag)

On day 15, we will have a very good game between two teams with completely different situations in the season and fighting for completely different goals, but both need to add 3 points in each day that they lack and, therefore, each game becomes like a grand finale. In this case, we will have the match between Necaxa and Tigres UANL, which will be played next Tuesday, April 19, 2022, at the Victoria Stadium, home of Necaxa.
We started with Necaxa, a team that several seasons ago was at the peak of its history, achieving important victories and in some cases leading the standings, but for several seasons it has been a team with a very low level of play and that has left a lot to be desired. Currently, they are fighting to enter the playoffs and the future is not very clear for them.
On the other hand, we have Tigres UANL, another team, together with Pachuca, that has shown that this season they did not come with stories and that their only objective is to achieve the title of champion of this Closing Tournament. Currently, Tigres is fighting for first place with Pachuca and, like them, achieving 2 victories ensures their direct classification to the Liguilla.
Necaxa vs. Tigres UANL Betting Pick: Tigres UANL
Liga MX Matchday 15: Monterrey vs. Atlas
When: Wednesday, April 20 at 10:06 pm ET
Moneyline odds: Monterrey -102 / Atlas +265 (Source: MyBookie.ag)
Draw Offs: +245

Finally, we close this Liga MX Power Rankings or Predictions with a match that we are sure will not let anyone relax or sit quietly in their armchair. A match between direct rivals who are fighting to keep one of the four places that grant a direct pass to the Liguilla. Monterrey receives Atlas at the BBVA Stadium, this Wednesday, April 20, 2022.
Monterrey has played a Closing Tournament at a very good level and, despite having made some mistakes on some days, they remain at the top of the standings. In addition to this, Rayados accumulate several consecutive wins and arrives with full confidence.
On the other hand, we have Atlas as one of the teams that started this Closing Tournament 2022 in the best possible way, but, after the incidents that occurred in the match against Querétaro, Atlas began to lower their level of play and let go of some games that seemed assured. We hope that Atlas can get out of it and finish the season with everything.
Monterrey vs. Atlas Betting Pick: Monterrey
