Default 2024 Leagues Cup

The Leagues Cup is the de facto international club championship for North American (i.e. United States, Mexico, and Canada) association football (i.e. soccer). Jointly organized by Major League Soccer and Liga MX, it involves all 47 teams from both leagues. The top finishers from the Leagues Cup qualify as the North American zone representatives for the CONCACAF Champions Cup (a contest for which we will hold in 2025), along with direct qualifiers from each country through league and cup play. This is the fourth edition of the Leagues Cup, and the second including all MLS and Liga MX teams. Inter Miami CF is the defending champion, after defeating Nashville SC in a marathon 10-9 penalty shootout in 2023 to win their maiden trophy.

This contest is the last non-Olympic contest scheduled in the 2023-24 Legion Cup. It is also the last contest in the 2023-24 North American Cup, and it is additionally part of the Football/Soccer Cup. The winner will receive 2 slot-equivalents.

The two league champions (the Columbus Crew from MLS and Club América from Liga MX) will receive byes directly into the round of 32. The other 45 teams have been divided into 15 groups of 3 teams each, 7 in the East and 8 in the West. They will play a single round-robin, and the top-2 teams in each group will advance to the round of 32. It will then proceed in knockout format. The point structure has not been finalized, but it will likely be the same as the FA Cup (1-1-2-4-6-8).

Here are the groups and start times for the group stage:

East 1 (July 28, 7 PM):
  • FC Cincinnati
  • New York City FC
  • Querétaro

East 2 (July 26, 7 PM):

The group stage concluded yesterday. To see who advanced, check Wikipedia.

After a long battle with the spreadsheet, here is how everyone did:

I somehow only picked one team (a wrong team no less) in West 1. Go figure.

Here are the point standings:

juleandor17

The round of 32 starts tonight, but tonight's two matches are excluded due to the lack of time. Please see Wikipedia for the match-ups and start times, and post picks in the order listed on the bracket.

Next time I want to run ten contests at once, I need to hire someone.
