Los Angeles FC vs León - Team news

Los Angeles FC return to Banc of California Stadium ready to lift their first CONCACAF title, but to do that, they will have to show the kind of dominance they have enjoyed against their visiting rivals. In this tournament, Steve Cherundolo's men started on the wrong foot by losing their Round of 16 match at home against Alajuelense (1-2), but they bounced back to consecutive three-nil victories against Vancouver (quarter-finals), and Philadelphia Union (semis). Speaking of individual performances, the black and gold have Denis Bouanga as their top goalscoring threat and the tournament's top scorer with seven goals, including the one that gave them a lifeline in the first leg.

As for León, Nicolás Larcamón's men are on the verge of joining a list of Liga MX teams to win this competition, but they will have to do so playing away from home, something that has not come easy for Mexican teams. Considering their performances on the road in this competition, León really have to keep their act together, as they have lost two consecutive away games, both of them 2-1 against Violette AC (quarter-finals) and Tigres (semi-finals). The team in green and white will rely heavily on strikers Víctor Dávila and Ángel Mena, who have combined to score six goals for Los Panzas Verdes in this CCL edition.

Although no one wants to miss out on such a game, there will be some high-profile absentees in this clash. Here is the list of players that will not feature in this match.

Los Angeles FC: Giorgio Chiellini, Tony Leone, Maxime Crepeau, Jesús Murillo (injured).

León: No reported injuries.

Los Angeles FC vs León: Head-to-head

This will be the fourth CONCACAF Champions League game between these teams, with León having an edge over the LAFC with two wins compared to one for the American side.
Los Angeles FC eliminated León in their previous KO tie in this competition back in 2020.
León have never beaten an MLS club in the KO stage of the CONCACAF CL. They lost to the Seattle Sounders (2022), against Toronto FC (2021), and facing the LAFC in 2020.
Los Angeles FC will face a Liga MX team in a KO stage for the fifth time in this tournament. They defeated León, Cruz Azul, and América in 2020, but then went to lose the title match against Tigres UANL in that edition.
León will try to recover Liga MX's dominance in this tournament after a run of sixteen Mexican teams winning this competition until last year.

Los Angeles FC will try to become the fourth MLS team to win the CONCACAF CL title, following D.C. United (1998), Los Angeles Galaxy (2000), and Seattle Sounders (2022).
