The 2014 Apertura will be the first championship of the season. It began on July 18, 2014.
The six best teams after the first place play two games against each other on a home-and-away basis. The winner of each match up is determined by aggregate score. If the teams are tied, the Away goals rule applies.
The teams were seeded one to seven in quarterfinals, and will be re-seeded one to four in semifinals, depending on their position in the general table. The higher seeded teams play on their home field during the second leg.
- If the two teams are tied after both legs, the away goals rule applies. If both teams still tied, higher seeded team advances.
- Teams are re-seeded every round.
- The winner will qualify to the playoff match vs (Clausura 2015 Champions) . However, if the winner is the same in both tournaments, they would be the team promoted to the 2015–16 Mexican Primera División season without playing the Promotional Final
