Overview
- Kickoff is scheduled for 8:00 p.m. CT, with broadcasts in Mexico on Azteca 7, Canal 5, TUDN and ViX, and in the U.S. on Telemundo, Univision platforms, FOX Sports and fuboTV.
- This is the clubs’ first Liga MX final against each other after both semifinal aggregates ended level and were decided by regular‑season position, with Toluca first and Tigres second.
- Toluca pursues a 12th league title and a short‑tournament bicampeonato, while Tigres aim for a ninth championship to draw level with Cruz Azul on the all‑time list.
- Toluca forward Alexis Vega traveled but is expected to be used only in an emergency as he continues recovery, and defender Bruno Méndez is available for selection.
- The champion will be decided on aggregate over two legs with extra time or penalties if required, and a media‑reported AI model gives Tigres a narrow first‑leg edge with low‑scoring projections.
