On the other hand, Santos Laguna is at the bottom of the general table of the tournament and faces, in addition to the Clausura 2022, the commitment to face the Concacaf Champions League.

Therefore, here are the 4 best and the 4 worst teams in this Liga MX 2022

Puebla

With 11 points from 3 games won, 2 tied and 0 defeats La Franja remains at the top of the tournament, in which the game plan of coach Nicolás Larcamón has proven to be not only effective but has been enough for them to be the team with the best goal difference of Clausura 2022.

With 9 goals for and 3 against, Puebla has reigned supreme for several matchdays now over the supposedly big four of Mexican soccer: Cruz Azul, Chivas, Pumas UNAM, and, of course, Club America. 

Atlas

The reigning champion of the tournament is behind Puebla only because it has two more goals against them. However, the team's priority is goals, so if the club's goalscorer Julio Furch is inspired, they could dethrone La Franja. 

Pachuca

Los Tuzos are in third place in the competition and also have a problem that is not serious now, but if they do not solve it, it could cost them more in the future: the defense, as they have 6 goals against, which could cost them in the last rounds of the tournament. 

Cruz Azul

La Máquina is in fourth place in the competition and knows that what they have is enough to reach the Liguilla without any problems, but the team coached by Juan Reynoso knows that they have already broken their curse of 23 years without winning the Liga MX and they want more achievements. 

The worst teams in Liga MX so far

Mazatlan FC

Beñat San José's team has only 3 points in the tournament and is one of the worst scorers in the competition, with 9 goals against. 

For this reason, the team needs to take advantage of the pending duel with Club America to try to take the 3 points from the pending duel they have in Round 2. 

Querétaro

The team coached by Leo Ramos has a terrible goal deficit, with 8 goals against and 4 goals for, so they urgently need to change course to stop being the worst team in the tournament. 

Atletico San Luis

With only 3 points in the tournament, André Jardine's team needs to stop conceding goals, which seems to be their specialty since in only 5 rounds of the Liga MX 2022 they have conceded 7 goals and scored 3. 

Santos Laguna

The Guerreros have two missions this week: to win their CONCACAF Champions League match against Montreal, but above all, to stop being the worst team in the Clausura 2022. 

So far in the current competition, the team coached by Pedro Caixinha has conceded 13 goals and scored only 6 goals, to accumulate 1 point.
