At the domestic level, Monterrey has won Liga MX on five occasions (México 1986, Clausura 2003, Apertura 2009, Apertura 2010, Apertura 2019) and Copa MX three times (1991-92, Apertura 2017, 2019-20).
The winner of the two legs of the Quarterfinals will be determined by aggregate score, with road goals being the first tie-breaker. Should Crew SC advance to the Semifinals of the tournament, it would face the winner of the Quarterfinals matchup between Toronto FC (Canada) and Cruz Azul (Mexico) across two legs.
