Both sides arrived in the final in contrasting manners. Pumas overturned a 4-0 deficit after the first leg in the semifinal vs. Cruz Azul, winning the second leg, 4-0, thanks to a last-gasp goal from Juan Vigon. By virtue of away goals being even, Pumas went ahead through the tiebreaker of having had the better regular season record.

Leon's path was considerably less dramatic, though it did require a come-from-behind effort against Puebla in the quarterfinals before edging Chivas in the semis to go through.

The second leg will be played Sunday night and hosted by Leon, the higher seed. By virtue of reaching the final, both Leon and Pumas have qualified for the 2022 Concacaf Champions League.
