The 2026 Clausura Tournament enters its penultimate day with practically everything yet to be defined. This Saturday, April 18, Marquense and Municipal open matchday 21 in a duel that pits the leader of the accumulated table against a team that is fighting to consolidate itself in the middle zone, while on Monday the match between Comunicaciones and Guastatoya will close a date full of decisive matches at both ends of the classification.
In the Clausura table, Xelajú MC leads with 33 points, followed by Mixco, Municipal and Comunicaciones with 32 each, which makes this day a golden opportunity for any of the four to take advantage heading into the last date.
Antigua GFC and Marquense appear with 30 points each and also have options in the fight for first places, while Aurora and Malacateco no longer have mathematical possibilities of advancing to the next phase. Achuapa is the first relegated of the season after losing on matchday 20 0-3 against Xelajú MC.
The busiest day will be Sunday the 19th, with four games that promise to move the table significantly. The duel between Mictlán and Xelajú and that of Comunicaciones and Guastatoya are the most attractive of the date, with direct implications both in the fight for the leadership and in the fight to remain in the accumulated table, where Guastatoya, Malacateco and Mictlán remain tied with 50 points each in the danger zone.

ORa decisive day
With the accumulated table so tight at the bottom and the Clausura without a defined leader, each point of this day can be definitive. The teams that arrive in better shape to the last day will have the advantage of defining their own destiny, while those who stumble this weekend will be left with zero margin of error for the final date.
The second relegation of the season remains unconfirmed between Guastatoya, Malacateco and Mictlán, three teams equal in the accumulated table that in some cases face each other, which guarantees that at least one of them will become even more complicated on this penultimate day of Clausura 2026.
