The Liga MX Clausura 2026 final will see Mexico City powerhouses Cruz Azul and Pumas UNAM battle to become champions of Mexico’s top-flight in a matchup between two of the “big four” teams in Mexican soccer.
After years of mediocrity, Pumas is having a dream season under the command of Mexican manager Efraín Juárez. Pumas topped the regular season standings and then dispatched arch-nemesis Club América before dramatically overcoming Pachuca on the road to the final, where they’ll look to add an eighth star to the badge and end a title-drought that dates back to 2011.
