Colours: Blue = home team win; Yellow = draw; Red = away team win.

Liguilla (Playoffs)

The six best teams after first place played two games against each other on a home-and-away basis. The winner of each match up was determined by aggregate score. If the teams were tied, the Away goals rule applied.

The teams were seeded one to seven in quarterfinals, and were re-seeded one to four in semifinals, depending on their position in the general table. The higher seeded teams play on their home field during the second leg.

  • If the two teams were tied after both legs, the away goals rule applied. If both teams were still tied, the higher seeded team advanced.[3]
  • Teams were re-seeded every round.
  • The winner qualified to the playoff match vs the Clausura 2014 winner. However, if the winner had been the same in both tournaments, that team would have been the team promoted to the 2014–15 Mexican Primera División season without playing the Promotional Final
