LIGA MX Computer Picks & Predictions

Using our prediction algorithm, we are able to make LIGA X Computer picks, updated for every match. We do this using hundreds of data points and thousands of variables, to ensure we provide the best data for you to make an informed decision.

History of Liga MX

Liga MX was founded in 1943. Before the formation of the league, soccer was played in Mexico. However, there wasn’t any centralized soccer league system. Rather, soccer leagues covered relatively small geographical regions. The Federacion Mexicana de Futbol Asociacion (F.M.F) is credited with forming the first centralized soccer league system in the country. The first top tier league consisted of 10 clubs. Six of the clubs came from the Primera Fuerza in Mexico City. Two clubs came from the Liga Occidental while two others came from Liga Veracruzana.

From 1948 to 1970, the top tier league in Mexico failed to blossom as many people had anticipated. This was largely attributed to low revenue streams. Often, the clubs that excelled in the league failed to participate in the prestigious regional tournament the Copa Libertadores owing to financial constraints.

Things however changed after Mexico’s successful hosting of the 1970 World Cup. The year after the World Cup, F.M.F introduced the playoff phase dubbed the Liguilla. The Liguilla in the successive years was played using various formats but the ultimate aim was to crown the undisputed champion. The league kept on taking various formats until the start of the 2012 -2013 season when the F.M.F paved way for Liga MX. The rebrand came with several changes including the introduction of a new logo.

Liga MX Format

18 teams participate in Liga MX. The 18 teams at the start are divided into two groups. This, therefore, means each season, two champions emerge in Mexico’s top soccer league. The soccer season in Mexico is divided into two parts. There is the Apertura which runs from July to December. There is also the Clausura which runs from January to May. The top four teams in the two groups qualify directly for the Liguilla while the next eight teams qualify for the play-in round. Only four teams qualify from the play-in round. The teams that qualify from the play-in round compete with those that qualified directly to the Liguilla. The winning team is awarded the championship trophy and receives automatic qualification into the regional soccer tournament.

In days gone by, there used to be promotions and relegations in the Mexico soccer pyramid. The lowest-ranked team from the Liga MX league would be relegated to the second division, the Ascenso MX. Likewise, the winner from Ascenso MX would be promoted to Liga MX. However, Liga MX president Enrique Bonilla during the 2019/20 season suspended promotions and relegations for five years. This, therefore, means that currently, all teams remain in their respective leagues despite their performances.
