"MLS and LIGA MX Teams Set to Face Off in Leagues Cup 2024 Group Stage"

Inter Miami CF, led by Lionel Messi, will face Tigres in the group stage of the Leagues Cup tournament, while the LA Galaxy and San Jose Earthquakes will take on Chivas. The competition will feature all 47 clubs in a battle for the regional title and three automatic spots into the 2025 Concacaf Champions Cup. The group distribution was based on a new "Leagues Cup Ranking" system, and no group stage games will end in ties. Matches will be played in the United States and Canada, with "hub privileges" for the top-ranked Mexican teams to reduce travel.
