Club América arrive in Carson as the reigning Apertura 2024 champion, while Toluca secured its place by conquering the Clausura 2025. With the Campeón de Campeones title on the line, both sides rescheduled their Matchday 2 fixtures to square off on U.S. soil, adding even more weight to this high-stakes clash.
But there’s more at play than just another trophy. The winner won’t just be recognized as the top team in Mexican football this season - they’ll also earn the right to represent Liga MX in the Campeones Cup final later this year. For América, the game represents a shot at payback after falling to Toluca in the Clausura Final. For the Diablos, it’s a chance to make another statement under manager Antonio Mohamed and build on their growing momentum.
