2018–19 Liga MX Femenil season

The 2018–19 Liga MX Femenil season was the second season of the top-flight women's football league in Mexico. The season was contested by eighteen teams, all being the counterpart women's teams of the men's league clubs Liga MX. The season was split into two championships—the Torneo Apertura and the Torneo Clausura—each in an identical format and each contested by the same eighteen teams. Unlike the inaugural season, all eighteen Liga MX clubs fielded a women's team.

 * The teams were divided into two groups of nine, the best four of each group advancing to the quarterfinals of the Liguilla.

Changes

 * Due to the addition of Lobos BUAP and Puebla, this season consisted of two groups of nine teams, instead of two groups of eight.
 * The Liguilla (playoffs) will now consist of a quarterfinals round, as a result, eight teams (four from each group) will now qualify to the Liguilla.

 * Morelia moved from Group 1 to Group 2.
 * Two teams (one from each group) will rest each round.
