  ### Inter–groups matches
  
  In the Apertura 2009 and Bicentenario 2010 tournaments, the league determined the celebration of two weeks of matches between teams belonging to different groups.
  
  ### Liguilla
  
  The fifth or sixth best teams of each group play two games against each other on a home-and-away basis. The higher seeded teams play on their home field during the second leg. The winner of each match up is determined by aggregate score. In the Round of 8, quarterfinals and semifinals, if the two teams are tied on aggregate the higher seeded team advances. In the final, if the two teams are tied after both legs, the match goes to extra time and, if necessary, a penalty shoot-out.

  ### Liguilla
  
  The fifth or sixth best teams of each group play two games against each other on a home-and-away basis. The higher seeded teams play on their home field during the second leg. The winner of each match up is determined by aggregate score. In the Round of 8, quarterfinals and semifinals, if the two teams are tied on aggregate the higher seeded team advances. In the final, if the two teams are tied after both legs, the match goes to extra time and, if necessary, a penalty shoot-out.

  ## Promotion to Liga de Ascenso
  
  Universidad del Fútbol won the two tournaments corresponding to the season, however, due to being a reserve team of C.F. Pachuca, it did not have the right to be promoted. By regulation, the place in the upper category was offered to Altamira F.C., the team with the second best performance in the season, so this club finally won the promotion after paying US$ 470,000 for the place.
