Pachuca vs San Diego FC Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Leagues Cup 2025

Neither of these clubs have ever won the competition.

Pachuca are ready to take on San Diego FC in the league phase of the 2025 Leagues Cup. The interesting contest between the two teams is scheduled to take place at the Snapdragon Stadium.

After the FIFA Club World Cup 2025, Pachuca now have another chance to shine outside of Mexico. They are doing very well in the Liga MX at the moment. In their first three games of the 2025-26 campaign, they have won all three of their matches and are sitting at the top of the points table.

San Diego FC will be at home, which will be a big advantage for them here. Their current Major League Soccer campaign is going good, they are looking strong and are at the top of the Western Conference MLS points table. Their upcoming opponents will put up a strong fight, and it will be interesting to see their performance here.

Players to Watch

Jhonder Cadiz (Pachuca)

In three Liga MX appearances, Jhonder Cadiz has scored two goals for Pachuca. The 29-year-old forward from Venezuela is going to play an important role in the attacking front for his side. He is a lethal attacker and can cause problems for the opponent’s defence.

Cadiz can also help his teammates by setting up plays.

Anders Dreyer (San Diego FC)

Anders Dreyer is going to play a crucial role in the final third. He has been one of the most consistent players for his team this season. In 25 MLS appearances, the 27-year-old has 26 goal involvements, which means he can create issues for Pachuca with the ball at his feet.
