Tigres UANL and Minnesota United clash for first Leagues Cup win

Tigres UANL and Minnesota United will face each other on Friday, 7 August, at 20:00 Brasília time (Allianz Field, Minnesota) in the second round of the Leagues Cup group stage. Both clubs are still searching for their first victory in the tournament.

Tigres entered the match after a 1‑1 draw with Real Salt Lake that they won on penalties, while Minnesota United suffered a 2‑1 defeat to Juárez. Tigres are coached by Guido Pizarro, who has struggled early in the 2026/27 season, and Minnesota United are led by new head coach Cameron Knowles, who took over after Eric Ramsay’s departure.

The encounter offers each side a chance to secure their inaugural win and improve their standing in the competition.
