Wondering with this tournament since i'm really ignorant on the subject How does the opponent for Round one work? Everyone in Pot 1 plays someone in pot 2?
Assuming no one from pot 2 makes it through the round of sixteen who do people hope to play next round? Avoiding the Mexicans until the end would be nice, RedBulls I think would be the tougher Mls team, Dallas probably the easiest but I wouldn't mind another go at Seatle
On a side note, does anyone know if the draw will be televised?
when is the draw..
We are the 5th strongest team there behind all 4 of the Mexican clubs... I would rate TFC to be a mid table team in Mexico. We should crush our 1st opponents & try to avoid Tigres in the later stages (with Enner Valencia, Gignac, Aquino & Vargas) who IMO are the class of the competition followed by America.
According to FiveThirtyEight, we're the 2nd strongest team in the competition. Here are the rankings for the CCL MLS/Liga MX clubs:
56.0 - Tigres UNAL
47.5 - TFC
43.3 - Seattle Sounders
42.4 - Tijuana
42.1 - New York Red Bulls
40.8 - Club America
40.4 - Chivas Guadalajara
32.9 - FC Dallas
20.5 - Colorado Rapids
I'd like to see a Tigres-TFC final, please.
The draw is on TSN go......
You need to be cable subscriber to use TSN GO app to watch the Draw.
2 Mexican clubs on the same side of the bracket so far...
Draw is on! We can see the slotting as it happens at least. America and Tigres in the same half of bracket... hopefully we can get the other side.

That's all I'll say about that.
Nope! We get Tigres in QF and America in SF likely. Ha!
That's all I'll say about that.
We're in very tough. Same side as Tigres and Club America.
I believe with that draw we would likely play Tigres 2nd round if we advance. Damn.
We're Pot A. Meaning the higher seeded teams. Could only be drawn against pot B - it was impossible for us to play Tigres or America.
Welp, it's not going to be easy boys.
We have a chance to face the rapids?!..
Edit: LOL
