The Liga MX Clausura 2025 kicks off its Jornada 7 on February 14, 2025, coinciding with Valentine's Day, featuring three exciting matches across the country.
This weekend, soccer lovers are set for thrilling encounters as América faces off against Necaxa at the Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes. The current champions, led by coach André Jardine, are on the hunt for their seventh consecutive match without defeat, showcasing their solid performance with 16 points from six games so far.
Necaxa, under the guidance of Nicolás Larcamón, sits mid-table with nine points and aims to upset América’s plans. The clash could be highlighted by the prowess of Colombian striker Diber Cambindo, who is the tournament’s top scorer with six goals. “Necaxa needs the best version of Cambindo to challenge the reigning champions,” noted AS.
Simultaneously, Tijuana will host FC Juárez at the Estadio Caliente. Both teams are striving for points as Tijuana badly needs to escape the bottom of the table with only four points to show after six tries. Coach Juan Carlos Osorio is seeking to reignite the team's competitive spirit, facing Juárez, which sits above them with ten points. “This match is pivotal for both squads; every point counts at this stage,” emphasized one local sports analyst.
The third matchup on this busy night will see Mazatlán FC take on Santos Laguna at Estadio El Encanto. Santos, yet to score points this season, stands as the only team without any, losing all six fixtures. The lackluster performance places immense pressure on coach Fernando Ortiz and his players. “Santos must break their losing streak; otherwise, this could threaten Ortiz's tenure,” said local commentators.
All three matches are set to kick off at 21:00 hours (Central Time), leading to excitement among fans as they tune in to watch these pivotal encounters. The games will be broadcast across various channels, including Canal 5, TUDN, and Azteca.”
