In the 2026 LigaPro Serie A, relegation is decided in a six-team hexagonal that carries points and goal difference from the 30-round regular season, with the bottom two sides dropping to Serie B. Manta FC sits last on 33 points after a narrow recent win, while Técnico Universitario holds 37 and faces mounting pressure from improved results by Delfín and Orense. Deportivo Cuenca leads the group on 47 points and appears safest, followed by Mushuc Runa on 43. Remaining fixtures through late November and early December, including home-and-away matches among the group, will determine final positions, with goal difference serving as the primary tiebreaker. Trader consensus reflects the narrow margins and limited time left for lower-table sides to close gaps.
