The eight teams from Mexico’s first division that qualify for next year’s Leagues Cup will include the 2019 Apertura champion, 2020 Clausura champ, 2019-20 Copa MX champ, and the next five best teams in the combined Apertura 2019-Clausura 2020 regular-season standings that have not already qualified for Leagues Cup.

Atlanta United will qualify for the Champions League by either winning this year’s U.S. Open Cup, of which it is one of four remaining teams in the tournament, winning the MLS Cup, winning the Supporters’ Shield or by finishing first in the Eastern Conference. Atlanta United is in third in the East with 33 points, three behind Philadelphia, but with a game in hand.
