Leagues Cup action is back on Thursday night as Austin FC hosts Club América in the final Phase One match for both sides. Kickoff from Q2 Stadium in Austin is set for 8:30 p.m. ET, available to stream on Apple TV.
Club América enters the finale with six points after winning each of its first two matches of the tournament. The Águilas opened Leagues Cup play with a 3-1 victory over San Diego FC on August 6 and followed that up with another 3-1 victory against the Portland Timbers on Sunday.
Austin FC has been dominant on the defensive end to begin their Leagues Cup campaign, entering Thursday with six points and consecutive shutout victories. The Verde opened the tournament with a 2-0 win over Club Tijuana behind goals from Joseph Rosales and Jon Gallagher before returning to Q2 Stadium and taking down Puebla 3-0 on Sunday.
Myrto Uzuni powered that victory with a first-half hat trick, scoring all three goals before the 35th minute. Austin has now outscored its first two Liga MX opponents 5-0, while goalkeeper Brad Stuver enters Thursday looking for his third consecutive Leagues Cup clean sheet.
Thursday’s matchup carries significant quarterfinal implications for both clubs. Teams are separated into MLS and Liga MX standings, with only the top four from each league advancing. Both América and Austin enter with perfect records, and a victory would guarantee either club a place in the quarterfinals. América is also looking to reach the knockout stage for the first time since 2024, while Austin is attempting to finish the opening round unbeaten after winning its first two matches.
