The match-up featured América, the winners of the 1987–88 Mexican Primera División, and Puebla, the winners of the 1987–88 Copa México. The first-leg was played on 7 July 1988 at Estadio Cuauhtémoc, Puebla and the second-leg on 10 July 1988 at Estadio Azteca, Mexico DF.

In the first-leg, Puebla defeated América 2–1, but in the second-leg América responded with a 2–0 victory, winning the tie 3–2 on aggregate and claiming their third Campeón de Campeones title.
