Torneo Apertura

The Apertura 2025 will be the first tournament of the season and will begin on 11 July 2025. The defending champions are Toluca.

For the 2025 Leagues Cup, there will only be a one-weekend break for the group stage, which will be played between 29 July and 7 August. The rest of the competition will be played midweek, so there will be no month-long break as in previous seasons.[40]

Off–season changes

Due to the need to make cuts in the schedule because of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the play-in round will not be played for this tournament.

On 8 January 2026, Cruz Azul left the Estadio Olímpico Universitario after UNAM announced that it would not renew the team's stadium rental contract.[42] On the same day, Liga MX announced that the team will play at the Estadio Cuauhtémoc, Puebla during this tournament.[43]

Coefficient table

As of the 2020–21 season, the promotion and relegation between Liga MX and Liga de Expansión MX (formerly known as Ascenso MX) was suspended, however, the coefficient table will be used to establish the payment of fines that will be used for the development of the clubs of the silver circuit.[44]

Per Article 24 of the competition regulations, the payment of $MXN160 million will be distributed among the last three positioned in the coefficient table as follows: 80 million in the last place; 47 million the penultimate; and 33 million will be paid by the sixteenth team in the table,[45] as of the 2021–22 season the remaining $MXN80 million will be paid through the financial remnants generated by the Liga MX itself.[46] The team that finishes last on the table will start the following season with a coefficient of zero. If the last ranked team, which was Mazatlán, repeats as the last ranked team in the 2025–26 season coefficient table, they will be fined an additional $MXN20 million.
