Sports Seriously
The Liga MX playoffs are here, as 10 teams enter the Liguilla looking to take home the Clausura title.
Club América is looking to win a fourth consecutive Liga MX title, having defeated Monterrey in December to clinch the Apertura championship.
Las Águilas finished second in the Clausura table, three points back of regular-season champion Toluca.
Those two teams along with four others earned a spot in the quarterfinal, while the teams finishing in seventh through 10th place went into a play-in round.
The winner of the No. 7 vs. No. 8 game will earn the No. 7 seed in the quarterfinal, while the loser will face the winner of the No. 9 vs. No 10. game. The winner of that match will be awarded the No. 8 seed.
From there, all three rounds will see two-leg playoffs.
If the two clubs are tied on aggregate after both legs of the quarterfinal and semifinal, the higher seed advances automatically. If the teams are tied after both legs of the final, 30 minutes of extra time are played and then penalties if necessary.
Here is everything you need to know for the 2025 Liga MX Clausura playoffs.
