A new year and a new tournament! Liga MX Femenil is getting ready to kick off this weekend, when the clubs take the field to fight to get off on the right foot on the first day of the Clausura MX Fem 2025.
All the teams will be fighting tooth and nail to dethrone Monterrey, who were the champions of the Apertura 2024 tournament. Teams such as Tigres, América, Pachuca, Juárez, and Toluca will be waiting in the wings from day one, so a truly intense and spectacular tournament is in the offing.
Here is a preview of the best matches of the first day of the Clausura 2025 of the Liga MX Femenil.

Atlas did not have the Apertura 2024 tournament they would have dreamed of. The girls finished in 11th place with a record of seven wins, four draws, and six losses, which left them out of the Liguilla. Now, they have recharged their batteries and will be ready to fight to enter the top eight of the table and fight for the championship trophy.
On the other hand, Santos Laguna was one of the worst teams in the Apertura 2024. The “Laguneras” finished in second to last place with a terrible record of two wins, two draws, and 13 losses, with 11 goals scored and 38 conceded. This Clausura 2025 will be crucial for them, as they need to get off on the right foot to turn the page and be decisive in the tournament.
Although both teams did not play well in the previous tournament, we hope that Altas can step up and take the three points in this first game.
Atlas vs. Santos Laguna Betting Pick: Atlas
Clausura MX Fem 2025: Matchday 1 – Mazatlán vs. Monterrey

Mazatlan had a really bad Apertura 2024 tournament, as they finished #15 in the standings with a negative record of three wins, one tie, and 13 losses. They also had the worst defense in the entire league, conceding as many as 55 goals in just 17 games, which translates to an average of 3.23 goals conceded per game. Now, they have the opportunity to start on the right foot if they can get a win at home against the reigning champions.
On the other hand, Monterrey’s “Rayadas” have just been crowned champions of the 2024 Apertura MX Women’s League. As a result, they start the tournament as favorites and, above all, with great confidence to retain their title.
From start to finish, the “Rayadas” were dominant in the league, so their trophy was more than deserved. In the Liguilla, Monterrey defeated Toluca, Pachuca, and, finally, Tigres on penalties in the Grand Final.
For this match, our winner’s chip goes to the Monterrey girls.
Mazatlán vs. Monterrey Betting Pick: Monterrey
Clausura MX Fem 2025: Matchday 1 – América vs. Cruz Azul
When? | Monday, January 6 at 8:10 PM ET, 7:10 PM CST, 6:10 PM MT, 5:10 PM PT |
Where? | El Encanto Stadium |

América came up short in the Apertura 2024 because, although they reached the semifinals and finished with a 3-3 aggregate draw with Tigres, away goals by the felines gave them a ticket to the Grand Final. However, this does not detract from the fact that the tournament was positive for the Eagles, as they fought until the end to stay at the top. América was the team that scored the most goals in the opening tournament, and they intend to continue with this strong rhythm in the Clausura 2025.
On the other hand, Cruz Azul had a lot of trouble finding rhythm throughout the Apertura 2024. As a result, they were left out of the top eight of the standings, specifically in the #12 position, so,they were unable to play in the postseason. However, we know that these types of games are decisive and, in addition to the three points, honor and respect are at stake. For this reason, we expect Cruz Azul to play with integrity and strength to try to beat their city rivals.
Likewise, for this match, our prediction is a victory for América.
América vs. Cruz Azul Betting Pick: América
Clausura MX Fem 2025: Matchday 1 – Tigres vs. Tijuana
When? | Monday, January 6 at 10:06 PM ET, 9:06 PM CST, 8:06 PM MT, 7:06 PM PT |
Where? | Universitario Stadium |

Tigres was one of the top contenders in the Apertura 2024 from start to finish. Not only were they second in the regular season, just one point behind Monterrey. They also managed to reach the Grand Final, which they came very close to winning. However, in the penalty shootout against the “Rayadas,” they did not have the necessary coolness and ended up losing the championship trophy. Now, with an air of revenge, the Tigres girls will try to start the Clausura 2025 with all their might.
On the other hand, Tijuana fell just short of the Liguilla in the previous tournament. They finished in ninth place in the general classification, only one point behind Toluca, and therefore, they were very close to playing in the Liguilla. However, some matches were decisive, which left them out of the postseason party. Now, beating Tigres would be ideal to start the year on the right foot, so we expect them to play an intense and exciting game.
That said, we hope that Tigres will make their home ground respected and take the three points.
Tigres vs. Tijuana Betting Pick: Tigres
