2019–20 Ascenso MX season

The 2019–20 Ascenso MX season is a two-part competition: Apertura 2019 and Clausura 2020. Ascenso MX is the second-tier football league of Mexico. Apertura began on 1 August 2019. On April 17, Liga MX President Enrique Bonilla announced the termination of the remainder of the Clausura 2020 tournament. Two reasons were the COVID-19 pandemic and the league's lack of financial resources.[2]

Stats are from the regular season only

On 22 May 2020 the season was cancelled and no champion will be crowned.[3] With this announcement there would be no promotion or regulation for six seasons.

Changes from the previous season

All teams are able to be promoted to Liga MX 2020–2021 season.[4][5]

The relegated team of the Clausura 2020 Liga MX season will remain in Liga MX if it pays MXN$120 million to remain the 20th team of the league. MXN$60 million will go to the Ascenso MX team that would naturally be promoted and MXN$60 million would go to new projects determined by the Liga MX assembly. If the arrangement is declined, the 19 teams of Liga MX are responsible for MXN$120 million, the right to be the 20th team of Liga MX will be acceded to the Liga MX assembly. The vacant position in Liga MX could then be occupied by a certified Ascenso MX team or an external sport project. If the position remains open, Liga MX reserves all rights to do as it sees appropriate for the 2020–21 Liga MX season.[6][7][8]

The first ranked team will qualify for semi-finals and teams ranked second through sixth will qualify for the quarter-finals.[5]

Away victories will be counted as four points. The maximum number of points obtainable via this method will be restricted to the first six away matches played by one team.[5]

14 clubs will participate in this season:

Clausura 2020
  • On 7 December 2019, Potros UAEM announced they would no longer be able to compete in Ascenso MX citing their financial inability to operate in the division.[14][15]
  • On 27 December 2019, Loros UdeC was dissolved after the death of its owner, because the new board had no interest in maintaining the franchise.[16]

    Liguilla (Playoffs)

    The seven best teams play two games against each other on a home-and-away basis. The best team will be classified directly to semi-finals. 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 extra time and, if necessary, a penalty shoot-out.
