Club America vs Austin FC predicted lineups Leagues Cup

Predicted lineups: Club America are set up in a 4-2-3-1 and Austin FC in a 3-4-3, with both probable XIs in full below.

In the US, the match streams on Apple TV via MLS Season Pass.

Club America open their Q2 Stadium account as 46% favorites on Kalshi, with Austin FC at 26% and the draw-to-penalties scenario priced at 27%. The market sees this as a narrow tilt toward the home side rather than a commanding edge, and with both teams needing points from their final Phase One outing, the no-draws format adds urgency. This is Club America’s third and final game in the group stage. Kickoff at Q2 Stadium is set for 8:30 PM ET / 7:30 PM CT / 5:30 PM PT on Thursday, August 13.

How Leagues Cup Phase One works

Every club in the Leagues Cup plays three cross-league games, MLS against Liga MX. There are no draws. If the score is level after 90 minutes, the game goes straight to a penalty shootout, and the winner banks two points while the loser takes one. The top four MLS teams and the top four Liga MX teams then advance to the knockout rounds.
