Serie B de México

The Serie B is a Mexican association football league. Eight teams compete in one group. Since the 2021–22 season, it is two short tournaments. The top four teams in the standings at end of each torneo will play in the Liguilla for a spot to play for promotion to Liga Premier – Serie A, and the stadium must meet the requirements to promote as well. In the 2020–21 season, Serie B was on hiatus due to COVID-19, but Serie B was reactivated for the 2021–22 season.
