Before the suspension of Day 9 of the Clausura 2022, the America fell 2-1 on their visit to Monterey stripes. With this, they were at the bottom of the classification with 6 points and their crisis continues to worsen in the current contest.
At the moment, the Eagles are two points away from Queretarotwelfth place in the classification and whose match was suspended due to the violent events that occurred in the Corregidora Stadium. However, although the team from Coapa is only one play-off win away, they would need the rest of the teams to lose points.
In the event that the tournament resumes normally and the suspended games of Day 9 are rescheduled, America would have 24 points to play and look for a place in the direct Liguilla or even in the reclassification.

To reach the direct quarterfinals, the panorama looks more complicated because the azulcremas would have to win their remaining 8 games, since in the last 3 tournaments no team with 30 points has been left out of the first four places.
While for playoffs, the goal seems more accessible but equally complicated. At guardians 2020 the last classified was Puebla with 20 points; at Guardians 2021 was Querétaro with 21 and in the opening 2021 it was Atlético San Luis with 20. However, in the last two cases there was a team or more that added the same number of units and was left out due to goal difference.
For this reason, the “magic” figure to qualify for the playoffs would be 22 points, because no team with that amount has been left out. In other words, the Eagles need at least 16 units, which leaves them with a margin of only two defeats in their next 8 games.
