Tigres UANL vs LAFC Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Leagues Cup 2025

This will only be the third time that these teams are going to face each other.

Tigres UANL are ready to lock horns with LAFC in the matchday 3 of the league phase fixture of the 2025 Leagues Cup. The interesting contest between these clubs is all set to take place at the BMO Stadium.

Tigres UANL will be coming into the game with confidence as they have secured wins in both of their previous Leagues Cup matches of the 2025 edition. Tigres defeated San Diego FC, but their defence has not been the best. They might even switch things around in the defensive lines.

The Los Angeles football club have not been able to win any of the games in normal time. They are coming in after taking down Pachuca in their last game, but that too in the penalties. They might have done well, but their performance in the final third was not good enough.

Kick-off:

• Location: Los Angeles, California, USA
• Stadium: BMO Stadium
• Date: Wednesday, August 6
• Kick-off Time: 08:00 a.m. IST/ 02:30 a.m. GMT (Tuesday, August 5; 10:30 p.m. ET/ 07:30 p.m. PT)

Players to Watch

Angel Correa (Tigres UANL)

In just two Leagues Cup 2025 appearances, Angel Correa has scored four goals and is the top goal scorer for his side in the competition. With his current form, the 30-year-old Argentine forward is going to play a crucial role in the final third for his side.

Denis Bouanga (LAFC)

Denis Bouanga has been the main man in the attacking front for the Los Angeles FC. The 30-year-old has delivered consistent performances for his club. He scored a goal for LAFC in their last fixture, but it was not enough.

He will yet again lead his side from the left flank and will become a problem for the opponent’s defence.
