The 2018–19 Liga MX season (known as the Liga BBVA Bancomer MX for sponsorship reasons) was the 72nd professional season of the top-flight football league in Mexico . The season was split into two championships—the Torneo Apertura and the Torneo Clausura —each in an identical format and each contested by the same eighteen teams.
Clubs
The following eighteen teams competed this season. Lobos BUAP was initially relegated to the Ascenso MX after accumulating the lowest point coefficient last season, but instead they will continue to compete in the Liga MX after the 2017–18 Ascenso MX champion, Cafetaleros de Tapachula , who won promotion after defeating Alebrijes de Oaxaca , was not certified to be promoted. Lobos BUAP paid MXN$ 120 million to be disbursed to Cafetaleros de Tapachula and remain in Liga MX.[ 1] [ 2]
