Torneo Apertura
The Apertura 2025 will be the first tournament of the season and will begin on 11 July 2025. The defending champions are Toluca.

Coefficient table
As of the 2020–21 season, the promotion and relegation between Liga MX and Liga de Expansión MX (formerly known as Ascenso MX) was suspended, however, the coefficient table will be used to establish the payment of fines that will be used for the development of the clubs of the silver circuit.[41]
Per Article 24 of the competition regulations, the payment of $MXN160 million will be distributed among the last three positioned in the coefficient table as follows: 80 million in the last place; 47 million the penultimate; and 33 million will be paid by the sixteenth team in the table,[42] as of the 2021–22 season the remaining $MXN80 million will be paid through the financial remnants generated by the Liga MX itself.[43] The team that finishes last on the table will start the following season with a coefficient of zero. If the last ranked team, which was Mazatlán, repeats as the last ranked team in the 2025–26 season coefficient table, they will be fined an additional $MXN20 million.

2025 aggregate table
The 2025 aggregate table (the sum of points of both the Clausura 2025 and Apertura 2025 seasons) is used to determine the seedings for the 2026 Leagues Cup. The clubs in "Tier one" have "hub rights" which allows them to host in a fixed region with priority over most MLS teams.
