After a 17 game regular season and the madness that ensued in the playoffs, arguably the two best squads in Liga MX remain standing. Monterrey and Club América will meet in the Apertura 2024 final in a battle between the two most expensive rosters in the country.
In the semifinals, Monterrey fell in the first leg against Atlético San Luis but in the second game, at home, the team played one of its best games of the season, with it's star players overpowering the visitors and a five goal second half sealed its place in the final. On the other hand, América took part in an instant classic against its city rivals Cruz Azul. In a wild game, Las Águilas emerged victorious against the league leaders, cementing its playoff dominance over La Máquina and getting within 180 minutes of a third consecutive Liga MX title.
América defeated Tigres in the Apertura 2023 final to begin its reign over Mexican soccer. One year later, and it can defeat the other Monterrey city team to become the first back-to-back-to-back champion of the century. Rayados will hope for a repeat of the Apertura 2019 final, where it beat América to raise the last league title in club history.
