Necaxa vs León: Liga MX Apertura 2026 match preview

The Liga MX Apertura 2026 season continues with a match between Necaxa and León, scheduled to close out Jornada 4 at the Estadio Victoria in Aguascalientes. This Monday fixture is an atypical scheduling for the league, which typically holds its matches on weekends.

Necaxa enters the game looking to improve its standing after a mixed start to the season. The team has suffered two defeats and secured one victory in the tournament so far. Their most recent league match resulted in a 3-1 loss to Toluca at the Estadio Nemesio Diez. However, Necaxa did manage a 2-1 win against NYC FC in their final Leagues Cup game, snapping a three-game losing streak across competitions.

León, on the other hand, has shown promise in the recent Leagues Cup, reaching the quarterfinals with a perfect record. Despite this continental success, their performance in the Apertura 2026 has been less stellar. "Los Panzas Verdes" have only managed one victory, accumulating two losses in their campaign. They are eager to leverage their momentum from the binational tournament to secure a much-needed win.
