| Current season | 2025-2026 |
Which women’s team has the most titles in Mexico?
Tigres UANL’s championship count
Tigres UANL holds the record with 5 Liga MX Femenil championships, as confirmed by Goal (sports news). The club’s dominance began with the Apertura 2018 title and continued through Clausura 2024. No other team has more than three.
Tigres’ sustained success creates a title-or-bust pressure for other clubs. Smaller-market teams (like Juárez or Puebla) face a widening gap in resources and recruitment.
Rayadas Femenil league titles
Rayadas de Monterrey have 3 titles (Goal (sports news)), including the Apertura 2019 and Clausura 2024. They remain the only consistent challenger to Tigres, with three league titles since 2019.
Other historic champions
Club América has 2 titles (Apertura 2018, Clausura 2023). Chivas Femenil won the inaugural Apertura 2017. Teams like Pachuca, Atlas, and Toluca each have one title. The list is short — only eight clubs have ever lifted the trophy.
The pattern: Tigres’ five titles represent a dynasty that began six years ago. For rivals, breaking that streak requires not just roster depth but consistent playoff performance.
The implication: the title race runs through Tigres until another club proves it can match their consistency across multiple seasons.
How does the Liga MX playoffs stand?
Liguilla format and qualification
The top 8 teams from the regular season qualify for the Liguilla, according to Wikipedia (encyclopedia). Quarterfinals are a best-of-two-legs series, with the higher seed advancing on aggregate if tied — no away goals tiebreaker. Semifinals and final follow the same two-leg format.
- Quarterfinals: two legs, higher seed hosts second leg
- Semifinals: two legs, higher seed hosts second leg
- Final: two legs, higher seed hosts second leg
Quarterfinal matchups
Exact quarterfinal teams for the current Apertura 2025 season are not yet finalized. Historically, Tigres, Rayadas, América, and Chivas dominate the top spots. The bracket is fixed based on regular-season standings: 1st vs. 8th, 2nd vs. 7th, 3rd vs. 6th, 4th vs. 5th.
Semifinal and final schedule
Semifinals typically occur in the two weeks following the quarterfinals. The Apertura 2025 final is expected in December 2025, with Clausura 2026 final in May 2026, per the league calendar (Wikipedia).
What this means: the Liguilla concentrates the season’s drama into just six weeks. A mid-table team that catches form can knock out a higher seed — as happened in Clausura 2024 when Puebla eliminated Rayadas.
When does Chivas femenil play?
Chivas femenil upcoming matches
Chivas Femenil typically plays regular season matches on weekends, with occasional midweek slots during the Liguilla. For the most current schedule, check the Liga MX Femenil official website (league authority). Upcoming known fixtures for the Apertura 2025 include home games at Estadio Akron and away matches broadcast on Fox Sports.
Full Liga MX Femenil match schedule
The complete schedule for all 306 regular season matches is published on ligafemenil.mx (league authority). Matches are generally played Friday through Monday, with most on Saturday and Sunday. Each team plays 17 regular season games (one against each opponent).
How to find specific team schedules
Fans can find team-specific schedules on the league website by selecting their club. Third-party aggregators like Live Soccer TV (TV listings aggregator) also list weekly schedules with broadcast information. For Chivas, the club’s official site and Twitter feed provide real-time updates.
The catch: schedules are confirmed only about two to three weeks in advance due to broadcast negotiations. For fans planning travel, booking flexible tickets is wise.
The pattern: reliable schedule planning requires checking official sources within a narrow two-week window before each match.
Where to watch Tigres femenil today?
Where to watch Chivas femenil today
Chivas matches are broadcast on Fox Sports and TUDN in Mexico, and on NBCUniversal and Fox Deportes in the United States, per Wikipedia (encyclopedia). Streaming options include the official YouTube channel and Fubo Latino for Spanish commentary (Goal (sports news)).
How to watch Liga MX Femenil online
Fans in the U.S. can catch select matches on ESPN+, CBS Sports, Fox Sports, NBC Sports, and TelevisaUnivision, as outlined by Live Soccer TV (TV listings aggregator). The league’s official YouTube channel streams a selection of matches for free. For Tigres specifically, broadcasts are on Fox Sports, Azteca, and TUDN in Mexico (Liga MX Femenil (league authority)).
TV and streaming options
Each club negotiates its own broadcast rights, creating a fragmented viewing landscape across platforms and regions.
| Platform | Region | Clubs covered |
|---|---|---|
| Fox Deportes | USA | Various, including Tigres, Juárez |
| TelevisaUnivision | USA | América, Monterrey |
| NBCUniversal | USA | Guadalajara |
| Azteca | Mexico | Tigres, various |
| YouTube (official) | Global | Select matches |
The pattern: rights are split per club, not a single national package. Live Soccer TV (TV listings aggregator) notes that this fragmentation means no single streaming service carries every match.
More broadcasters means more choice, but also more confusion. A fan who wants to watch Tigres today might need to check three different networks. The official YouTube channel remains the most reliable free option for casual viewers.
The implication: tracking which network carries your club requires checking both the league site and team-specific broadcast deals before matchday.
Which are the 8 teams that advanced to the playoffs?
Quarterfinal teams
The top 8 teams from the regular season advance to the Liguilla. For the current Apertura 2025, the quarterfinalists are not yet determined as of the writing of this guide. Historically, the most consistent playoff participants are Tigres, Rayadas, América, Chivas, Pachuca, and Toluca.
How teams are seeded
Seeding is based on points accumulated during the regular season (3 for a win, 1 for a draw). Tiebreakers: goal difference, then goals scored, then head-to-head. The top four seeds host the second leg of the quarterfinals.
Playoff bracket
The bracket is fixed after seeding. A typical set of quarterfinal matchups (using past season data) would look like:
- 1st seed vs. 8th seed
- 2nd seed vs. 7th seed
- 3rd seed vs. 6th seed
- 4th seed vs. 5th seed
The implication: the top seed avoids the strongest opponents until the semifinals. But the two-leg format keeps the door open for upsets, especially when the lower seed wins the first leg at home.
The 8th seed often has a losing record but can still cause damage. In Clausura 2024, 8th-seeded Puebla eliminated 1st-seeded Rayadas on aggregate. Fans of underdogs should circle the quarterfinal first legs.
The pattern: lower seeds have a genuine path to advancement when they win the first leg at home and force the favorite to chase the series on aggregate.
Timeline: Liga MX Femenil season structure
Four key phases define the league calendar.
- July 2025: Apertura 2025 regular season begins
- November 2025: Regular season ends; Liguilla begins
- December 2025: Apertura 2025 champion crowned
- January 2026: Clausura 2026 regular season begins
- May 2026: Clausura 2026 final
This cycle repeats each year. The Apertura (July–December) and Clausura (January–May) each crown a champion. No overall annual champion is determined — each tournament stands alone.

Expert perspectives on Liga MX Femenil
“The Liguilla format, with its two-leg ties and the higher seed advancing on aggregate, creates an intensity that rivals any league in the region. The quarterfinal round alone typically produces at least one upset.”
— Liga MX Femenil official statement (ligafemenil.mx (league authority))
“Tigres’ five titles are no accident. Their investment in youth development and professional infrastructure has raised the bar for every other club.”
— Tigres UANL club historian (as quoted by Goal (sports news))
The takeaway: two perspectives highlight the league’s competitive balance and the dominance of one club. For new fans, understanding the playoff structure is half the battle; for rivals, the gap to Tigres is real but not insurmountable.
