Quick Facts Tournament details, Country ...

This tournament began on 17 January 2017 and ended on 19 April 2017.[1][2]

The final was held at Estadio Chivas in the Guadalajara suburb of Zapopan with the home team Guadalajara defeating Morelia 3–1 on penalty kicks to win their fourth title.

As winners, Guadalajara earned a spot to face Querétaro (winners of the Apertura 2016 edition), in the 2017 Supercopa MX.[3]

Participants

This tournament featured clubs from Liga MX who did not participate in the 2016–17 CONCACAF Champions League knockout stages (Monterrey).[4] Due to the Mexican clubs withdrawing from the Copa Libertadores, teams who qualified to the 2017 edition (Tijuana, América and Guadalajara) also participated in the tournament, which made nine groups instead of eight like in the previous edition.[4]

The tournament also featured the top 12 Ascenso MX teams of the Apertura 2016 classification table.[5]
