The 1988 Campeón de Campeones was the 35th edition of the Campeón de Campeones, an annual football super cup match, and the 34th held in the professional era of Mexican football. The competition had not been played since 1976, marking this edition as its revival after a 12-year hiatus. Unlike most editions, this edition was played over two-legs, making it the second instance in the competition's history to use this format, the first being in 1968. 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.
