This tournament began on July 28, 2015, and ended November 4, 2015.[1] The winner will face the winner of the Clausura 2016 edition, in the 2016 Supercopa MX for the right to qualify as Mexico 3 to the 2017 Copa Libertadores.

Guadalajara won their third title after defeating León 1–0 in the final.

Participants

edit

This tournament featured clubs from Liga MX who did not participate in the 2015-16 CONCACAF Champions League (América, Querétaro, Santos Laguna and UANL)[2] All Ascenso MX teams except FC Juárez and Sonora also participated, no official reason was given for the clubs' exclusion from the tournament.

Tiebreakers

edit

If two or more clubs are equal on points on completion of the group matches, the following criteria are applied to determine the rankings:

  1. superior goal difference;
  2. higher number of goals scored;
  3. scores of the group matches played among the clubs in question;
  4. higher number of goals scored away in the group matches played among the clubs in question;
  5. best position in the Relegation table;
  6. fair play ranking;
  7. drawing of lots.

[3]

Group stage

edit

Every group is composed by four clubs, two from Liga MX and two from Ascenso MX. Instead of a traditional robin-round schedule, the clubs will play in three two-legged "rounds", the last one being contested by clubs of the same league.

Each win gives a club 3 points, each draw gives 1 point. An extra point is awarded for every round won; a round is won by aggregated score, and if it is a tie, the extra point will be awarded to the team with higher number of goals scored away.[3]

Championship stage

edit

The eight clubs that advance to this stage were ranked and seeded 1 to 8 based on performance in the group stage. In case of ties, the same tiebreakers used to rank the runners-up were used. In this stage, all the rounds will be a one-off match. If a game ends in a draw, it will proceed directly to a penalty shoot-out. The highest seeded club will host each match, regardless of which division each club belongs.
