Cruz Azul and América meet at another final: The Latin Times' Cartelera Futbolera for May 20-26

It will be the fifth time Cruz Azul and América decide the Liga MX champion; América has won each of the last three finals between both clubs (Credit: Via marca.com/MexSport)

SEATTLE - With the top European leagues concluding, cup competitions are the only good stuff remaining in the 2023-24 soccer season. This week, Bayer Leverkusen aims to cap their already legendary season by clinching both the UEFA Europa League and the DFB Pokal. The new Bundesliga champions have maintained a 51-game unbeaten streak in all competitions, the longest ever by any European team.

Similarly, Barcelona Femení is on a historic quest of its own, looking for the club's second Treble when they face Lyon at the UEFA Women's Champions League. It will be the third time both teams meet at the continental final, with the French side winning both games. Barcelona has been one of the most dominant teams in women's soccer history. The 'Culés' have only lost one game in the entire season, a 1-0 loss to Chelsea in the semifinals. They already won the Spanish league and the Copa de la Reina, and a win against Lyon would see them become the second team in women's soccer history to win multiple Trebles.

Liga MX will have a new champion by the end of the week, when América and Cruz Azul face off in yet another final, the fifth time they square off for the Liga MX title. Cruz Azul won the first clash in 1972 but América has won each of the last three. The first leg will be played May 23 at the Estadio Azul while the second leg will take place on May 26 at the iconic Estadio Azteca.
