Liga MX 2021 playoffs quarter finals: when will the return leg games be played?
Both opening games of the quarter-final stage Liga MX Apertura 2021 ended goalless with the Puebla-Leon and Santos Laguna-Tigres games to be played on Thursday.
With both the PUMAS-Club América and Monterrey-Atlas quarter finals ending goalless, the attention turns to the other two Liga MX Apertura quarter-final ties as Santos Laguna face Tigres UNAL and Puebla play Leon.
There will be limited time for the players to recover with the second legs for the quarter-finals set to take place on Saturday and Sunday this week and the semi-finals looming next mid-week.
Club América remain the leading contenders to secure the title with 'Las Aguillas' holding the advantage of finishing top of the regular season table.
