Los Angeles FC welcome Cruz Azul for the opening leg of the Concacaf Champions Cup quarterfinals, eager to cement their status among the continent's elite by toppling the reigning champions.
It has been a remarkable start to the season for LAFC, who remain unbeaten across 10 matches in all competitions, including Champions Cup victories over Real España and LD Alajuelense to secure their quarterfinal berth.
Lifting the Champions Cup trophy would establish LAFC as a true force in modern North American soccer. Knocking out the competition's joint-most decorated club along the way would only amplify the significance of such an achievement.
Cruz Azul sit atop Concacaf's rankings, are a consistent title challenger in Liga MX, and possess one of the deepest squads on the continent. Defending their Champions Cup crown is the sole mission, and anything short of that will be deemed a disappointment for Nicolás Larcamón's squad, who saw off Vancouver FC and Monterrey en route to the last eight.
It's a clash between two of the finest sides in the region that will reignite the enduring MLS vs. Liga MX rivalry, and here's everything you need to know about watching the first leg of LAFC and Cruz Azul's quarterfinal showdown.

What's Next for LAFC, Cruz Azul?
Both LAFC and Cruz Azul will return to league duty over the weekend before the second leg of their quarterfinal tie the following week.
Mark Dos Santos's side face a promising away fixture against the Portland Timbers, who currently sit second-from-bottom in the Western Conference standings, on Saturday afternoon.
Cruz Azul will also be in action on Saturday, though under far greater scrutiny, as Larcamón's men travel to fierce rivals Club América in a fixture they simply cannot afford to lose given the weight of the rivalry. In short, it represents the defining match of La Máquina's Liga MX Clausura 2026 regular season campaign.
