The main objective of this paper is to quantify de determinants of TV audience for Mexican soccer league at national level. I estimate a Cochrane-Orcutt correction. The results show that key variables to understand the rating are quality of the game, a big team involved, derby and post season game. The results fit to the international evidence. There is no previous paper on this topic for Mexican league.
