**MEXICO CITY** – The Liga MX Clausura 2025 resumes this Friday after the FIFA international break, with the pressure mounting for teams vying for a Liguilla playoff spot. A key match-up sees Toluca hosting Pachuca at the Estadio Nemesio Diez, both teams arriving on the back of strong wins.
Pachuca routed Tijuana 4-1 at home, while Toluca secured a convincing 3-0 victory over Puebla away. Toluca aims to close the gap on the league leaders, while Pachuca hopes to solidify their playoff position, potentially climbing further if Necaxa and Cruz Azul falter in their respective matches.
Toluca holds a four-game unbeaten streak against Pachuca, a significant turnaround after their painful Apertura 2022 Final loss. However, their home record against Pachuca over the last five matches is less impressive, with four defeats and a heavy goal differential (14 conceded, 2 scored). Their only home victory in that period was a 5-0 win in Apertura 2023. This Friday’s clash promises a thrilling encounter as both teams fight for a place in the playoffs.
