The Liga MX Apertura 2025 final is set as Tigres host Toluca in the first leg on Thursday night looking to dethrone the visitors as monarchs of Mexico’s top flight.
Tigres overcame Tijuana in the quarterfinals and then deservedly advanced past Cruz Azul in the semifinals. In his first full season as a manager, Guido Pizarro aims to seal his first title on the touchline with the club with which he lifted four Liga MX trophies during his playing days.
Reigning champions Toluca made light work of FC Juárez in the quarterfinals before dispatching Monterrey in the semifinals, ending Sergio Ramos’s tenure in Mexico. Antonio Mohamed is nearing his fifth Liga MX title and Toluca are on a mission to become the fourth team this century to win back-to-back league championships.
Tigres and Toluca have been the two best teams in Mexico over the past six months. Both sides topped the Apertura 2025 regular-season standings with only one point separating them after 17 games.
With plenty of star-caliber talent on both sides, this has the makings for a very attractive matchup. Here’s how you can tune in to watch the first leg of the Liga MX Apertura 2025 final.
