CF Rayados de Monterrey
- Monterrey have won two and lost three of their last five with a 3-0 defeat away to Santos Laguna followed by a 3-2 home win over them and a 2-1 loss away to Necaxa.
- Matías Almeyda has Monterrey pressing and playing a very man-to-man style of game with lots of energy at a fast tempo.
- A high defensive line is required, but Monterrey are conceding an average of 2.20 goals per game at home in all competitions and only scoring 1.80, which could be their undoing against a team like Orlando City, who have the firepower to exploit the spaces left by this approach.
Orlando City SC
- Orlando City are the form team, with 6 wins, 1 draw and 3 defeats from their last 10 games in all competitions.
- Orlando City have the better form leading into this game with three wins, a draw and a defeat from their last five matches.
- They are currently on a two-game winning streak after beating San Jose Earthquakes 4-0 away from home in MLS 2026 and Nashville SC 1-0 at home.
- Orlando have been very good on the road this season, winning three and losing three of their last six away games and scoring 16 goals in that time.

Lucas Ocampos is Monterrey's top scorer and form player with 5 goals in their last 5 matches.
