CF Monterrey have an away-goals advantage over Vancouver Whitecaps FC entering Leg 2 of their Concacaf Champions Cup Round of 16 series, courtesy of last week's 1-1 road draw.
The aggregate winner will face Alajuelense (Costa Rica) or Pumas UNAM (Mexico) in the quarterfinals next month. If the teams are deadlocked on aggregate and away goals after 90 minutes, extra time and potentially penalty kicks await.
Seven MLS clubs reached this stage of the prestigious continental tournament that grants a spot in the 2029 FIFA Club World Cup and the 2025 FIFA Intercontinental Cup. The single-match final will be held on June 1.
Monterrey enter Leg 2 with an edge, thanks to Roberto de la Rosa's away goal scored in the series opener at BC Place.
However, the five-time CCC champs are forced to host Wednesday's second match at Estadio Corona – home of LIGA MX rivals Santos Laguna – due to their venue, BBVA Stadium, being booked for a Shakira concert.
Rayados are coming off a 1-1 draw against Cruz Azul in league action over the weekend.
Arguably the better side in Leg 1, the Whitecaps outshot Monterrey 19-7 but settled for a 1-1 draw. However, Belal Halbouni's late equalizer gave Vancouver something to work with.
Let's not bury the lede, though: Vancouver captain Ryan Gauld suffered a left knee injury in last weekend's 2-0 win over CF Montréal. The Scottish international, who went down without contact, posted a team-leading 25 goal contributions last season.
Even without Gauld, Vancouver could pull off the upset. They've won three games to start an MLS season for the first time in club history, an impressive run under new head coach Jesper Sørensen.
