Monterrey reached the Apertura final but left empty-handed in a nail-biting curtain-closer. This team around, Martín Demichelis has a full campaign to rejuvenate his side, starting with a home clash with Puebla.

Cruz Azul won the Apertura regular season, losing just one game all season. Their semifinal defeat to América was a second-straight playoff loss to their city-rivals and shocked everybody as Martin Anselmi's side were heavy favourites to be crowned champions. This time around, they start the new season with a home fixture against an Atlas side newly managed by Gonzalo Pineda following the dismissal of Beñat San José.
