Planning guide
Viewing Tips for Mexico
Mexico co-hosts alongside the USA and Canada — most of the country runs on Central Standard Time year-round, with Quintana Roo on Eastern and Baja on Pacific. Plan around these realities before you block your calendar.El Tri plays at home — stadium time is local
Matches at the Azteca, Akron, and BBVA follow venue local clocks. A 19:00 kickoff in Guadalajara is 19:00 in Mexico City too — but US broadcast listings may still reference Eastern Time.
Central Mexico is 1 hour behind US Eastern
A 15:00 ET listing is 13:00 in Mexico City. Evening US slots often land in late afternoon or prime-time Mexican viewing — switch zones in the converter before you commit.
Cancún and the Riviera Maya use Eastern Time
Quintana Roo aligns with US Eastern year-round. If you are on the Caribbean coast, switch to Eastern Quintana Roo in the converter — one hour ahead of CDMX.
Tijuana and Baja California match US Pacific
Fans in the northwest share a clock with Los Angeles. A 21:00 ET knockout is 18:00 PT in Tijuana — easier on a Pacific work night than in CDMX.
Televisa and TV Azteca expected on free TV
Spanish-language coverage is expected on major free channels. See our Mexico Where to Watch guide for official options — kickoff times on this page work regardless of channel.
