Stats are from the regular season only |
The 2021–22 Liga de Expansión MX season was the 3rd and 4th edition of the second level professional division of Mexican football. The season was divided into two short tournaments, which was called Apertura 2021 and Clausura 2022, each tournament with an identical format and contested by the same 17 participating clubs. It was started on 27 July 2021 and ended on 14 May 2022.
Changes from the previous season
[edit]The Liga de Expansión MX is a Mexican football league founded in 2020 as part of the Mexican Football Federation's "Stabilization Project", which has the primary objective of rescuing the financially troubled teams from the Ascenso MX and prevent the disappearance of a second-tier league in Mexico, for which there will be no promotion and relegation during the following six years.[1] The project also attempts for Liga MX and former Ascenso MX teams to consolidate stable projects with solid basis, sports-wise and administrative-wise, financially wise and in infrastructure.[citation needed]
At first it was reported that the Irapuato were promoted from the Liga Premier de México in 2021.[2] However, on 3 June 2021, the Mexican Football Federation announced the opening of a selection process to choose the club that would occupy the Liga Premier 3 place,[3] because Irapuato must still meet some requirements to compete in the Liga de Expansión MX,[4] three Liga Premier clubs (Durango, Irapuato and Matamoros), were chosen for an audit process that would determine the winner of the promotion. On 5 July 2021, it was confirmed that no team undergoing the certification audit approved the procedure, so there will be no club promoted from the Liga Premier, finally, the Liga de Expansión will be play with 17 teams.[5]
As of this season, C.F. Monterrey will have its own team participating in the Liga de Expansión MX,[6] which will be called Raya2.[7]
As of 2021 Tepatitlán F.C. will be considered as a full member team of the Liga de Expansión MX, leaving the status of guest club with which it participated in the previous season.[6]
The league format will be modified, with the top four ranked teams from the tournament general table advancing directly to the quarter–finals, while clubs ranked between fifth and twelfth place will play the reclassification round.[6]

Coefficient table
[edit]As of the 2020–21 season, the promotion and relegation between Liga MX and Liga de Expansión MX (formerly known as Ascenso MX) was suspended, however, the coefficient table will be used to establish the payment of fines that will be used for the development of the clubs of the silver circuit.[41]
Per Article 24 of the competition regulations, the payment of $MXN3 million from Liga de Expansión clubs will be distributed among the last three positioned in the coefficient table as follows: Last place pays 1.5 million, the penultimate place pays 1 million, and the fifteenth place pays 500 thousand. If any affiliate club or new club from the Liga Premier is ranked in the bottom three at the end of the season, they are exempt from paying any fine and it will not be covered by any other club. Any club that does not pay their corresponding fine, for any reason, will be dissafiliated. The team that finishes last on the table will start the following season with a coefficient of zero. If the last ranked team, which was Pumas Tabasco, repeats as the last ranked team in the 2021–22 season coefficient table, they will be fined an additional $MXN1 million.[42]
