Toluca vs Cruz Azul — Campeón de Campeones

Kickoff: 8:30 p.m. ET - This should be the most heavily bet Mexican soccer match today. It is a trophy match in Los Angeles between the 2025 Apertura champion, Toluca, and the 2026 Clausura champion, Cruz Azul. The match is sold out at Dignity Health Sports Park, underlining the level of interest among Mexican and Mexican-American fans.

Guadalajara Chivas vs FC Juárez

Kickoff: approximately 7:00 p.m. ET - Among the regular Liga MX fixtures, this is likely the biggest handle. Chivas has one of Mexico’s two largest supporter bases and consistently attracts betting action regardless of the opponent. Guadalajara is listed as roughly a -224 favorite, making Chivas moneyline, alternate spreads and goalscorer markets likely focal points. Greater than $300,000 in betting volume was being observed at some prediction markets early.
