The biggest rivalry in Mexican soccer highlights the 2025 Concacaf Champions Cup round of 16 matchups.
Club América and Chivas will face off in a continental Clásico Nacional for the second year in a row in the Concacaf Champions Cup round of 16. América dispatched Chivas from the tournament in 2024, on the back of a dominating first leg 3–0 win at Chivas' home.
The script is not much different this time around, with América coming in as the overwhelming favorite to advance to the quarterfinals.
André Jardine's men have dominated Liga MX for the past year and a half, winning three-straight titles and looking like the favorites to win a fourth this season. Chivas, on the other hand, are struggling, having just fired their manager and sitting a mediocre 10th in the Clausura 2025 standings.
The two sides are on opposite trajectories, but all bets are off whenever one of the biggest rivalries in the continent reignites. Here's everything you need to know before the first El Clásico Nacional of the year in the first leg of the Concacaf Champions Cup round of 16.
