Deportiva Venados remains firm in the Southeast Zone

From here, on matchday 18, at the end of the regular 26-match calendar, many things can happen in the Southeast Zone of the Third Professional Division League.

There are teams that, given their fight, will surely redouble their efforts to avoid being left out, and others that are making strong strides.

Deportiva Venados is still in the lead in Group 1, having won 2-0 against Felinos de la 48 last week in Centro, Tabasco, reaching 44 points, compared to 43 for Boston Cancún and 42 for Ejidatarios de Bonfil. The Venados, more solid than before with their football, are very close to securing their ticket to the finals for reserve teams. A couple of wins in the rest of the tournament and that's it.

The team to watch in this second half is Corsarios de Campeche, who reached 35 points and are now in fifth place, when last season they were in the middle of the table or below. The way Mons Calpe is doing is also very pleasing, although this week they lost to Atlético Quintanarroense. This week, on matchday 19, Corsarios will have an important duel against Mons Calpe, on Friday. A key duel.

Deportiva Venados will play against Búhos CTM in Tamanché on Sunday, risking first place; Progreso will welcome the Ejidatarios, and Boston Cancún will go to Champotón against the bottom-ranked Pampaneros.— Gaspar Silveira Malaver
