What happened: Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. PT on Aug. 12, with tickets on sale and Apple TV carrying the match. It is LAFC's third and final Phase One fixture.
Why it matters: LAFC sits seventh in the MLS-side table, while only four MLS clubs advance. A regulation win would produce eight points, leaving goal differential and other results to shape the cutoff.
By the numbers: LAFC is 8-0-4 at BMO Stadium in Leagues Cup play and has lost once in eight tournament matches against Liga MX clubs.
What to watch: The MLS-side table will be settled after Phase One concludes Thursday.
