The aggregate winner will face either Inter Miami CF or Jamaican side Cavalier FC in the quarterfinals in early April. If needed, the away-goals tiebreaker is in effect.

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.

Columbus Crew

The 2024 CCC finalists have their backs against the wall after a lopsided Leg 1 defeat at BMO Stadium. A slip-up from Steven Moreira allowed Denis Bouanga to put the hosts ahead early before Columbus conceded two more goals in a 3-0 loss.

To advance, the Crew will need their biggest performance since transferring forward Cucho Hernández to LaLiga side Real Betis. As impactful as Diego Rossi and Jacen Russell-Rowe have been in attack, the Colombian star's absence looms large.

Even more: Columbus have been held scoreless in back-to-back games after Saturday's 0-0 draw with Houston Dynamo FC.

Los Angeles Football Club

Bouanga's brace and a late strike from homegrown forward Nathan Ordaz gave LAFC a commanding lead entering Leg 2 in Columbus. Now, they're 90 minutes away from completing the job against the team that beat them in MLS Cup 2023 and Leagues Cup 2024.

When traveling cross-country, the Black & Gold will look to rebound from last weekend's 5-2 setback at Seattle Sounders FC. While head coach Steve Cherundolo rotated his side, the club expects more from every match.

Of note: LAFC reached the 2020 and 2023 CCC finals, only to lose against LIGA MX opposition.
