Clausura

The Clausura tournament started on 15 January 2011 with the game between reigning champions

Pompilio Cacho scored the first goal of the season.[4]

On 16 March 2011, the league decided to switch rounds 14 and 15, thereby the
local derbies from 26–27 March don't interfere with the Honduras national football team fixtures.[5]

On 9 April 2011,
C.D. Motagua earned a ticket to the Final after a 3–3 draw on aggregate against C.D.S. Vida;[9] C.D. Olimpia qualified against C.D. Marathón one day later.[10] As a result, the contenders of the Honduran Superclásico faced each other again for the sixth time in a Final series in the history of the league. Motagua rectified its good performance and with a 5–3 aggregate score defeated its main rival and obtained its 12th league title.[11]

Real España, Motagua and Olimpia earned berths to the 2011–12 CONCACAF Champions League.[12]
