How to watch Liga MX on US TV

If you’re trying to find where to watch Liga MX on US TV, you’ve come to the right place.

Out of all of the soccer leagues shown on US television, Liga MX has the greatest number of viewers each week. There are three reasons the top-flight Mexican league has proven so popular. First, the large number of Mexican-Americans and Mexicans living in the United States. Second, many of the major games are featured on the over-the-air Univision network, which makes the league more accessible than others. And third and finally, Liga MX is an entertaining league to watch.

Additionally, several games each week are available exclusively on ViX+, TelevisaIUnivision’s Spanish-language streaming service. ViX+ also streams exclusive games from Liga de Expansión MX, Mexico’s second division since 2020. ViX, the free version of the service, shows select games from the women’s competition, Liga MX Femenil.

Season Layout

Liga MX splits into two halves of a season — an Apertura (opening half of the season) and a Clausura (closing half of the season). The Apertura starts in the summer, while the Clausura starts in the winter. At the close of both the Apertura and Clausura seasons, the 8 best placed teams compete in a playoff called a liguilla to determine the champion of that half of the season. Thus, Liga MX has two champions each year — an Apertura liguilla playoff winner as well as a Clausura liguilla playoff champion.

When it comes to TV broadcasters acquiring rights to Liga MX, it works differently than other leagues in other countries. Rights to home games sell on a club-by-club basis. Each club negotiates individual deals with local broadcasters, in several deals that range from $2 million per season for smaller teams to $15 million per season for one of the most popular teams such as Club América.
