Santos Laguna Returns to Training for Last Game of the Regular Season

After a day off and the FIFA date, Santos Laguna returns to training today with their sights set on the last game of the regular season in the Apertura 2017 of Liga Mx. The albiverde team will face their opponent, America, this Sunday at 18:30 in Estadio Corona.

Week 17 is Key for Santos's Chance in the Liguilla

This weekend marks the last week of the regular calendar, which is extremely important for those teams fighting for a spot in the Liguilla. However, Santos will only be watching it on TV, as their only focus is on beating America to earn points in the percentage table.

Current Standings

Monterrey, Tigres, America, Morelia, Leon, Toluca, Necaxa, and Atlas are currently the top eight teams in the general table.

Remaining Hope for Cruz Azul and Xolos de Tijuana

Cruz Azul, currently tied with Atlas at 24 points, is looking for a ticket to the Liguilla. Xolos de Tijuana, with 21 points, still has a chance, but they need Atlas and Cruz Azul to lose and score many goals for that to happen.

Looking Towards the Next Tournament

For the rest of the teams, including Santos, it's time to start thinking about the next tournament. Santos will face rival America in one of the matches that fans can't miss.

Santos's Current Position

Santos is currently in 13th place with 18 points. They hope to earn 21 points, but the most important thing is to contribute to the percentage table.

Concern about the Next Season

In the relegation standings, Santos is in 14th place with 104 units, 16 points ahead of the bottom team Veracruz. Although they have a slight cushion, they are not completely out of danger, as there will be relegation in the next season.
