Guadalajara vs. Charlotte Picks

Guadalajara and Charlotte both picked up disappointing results in the opening round of matches in the Leagues Cup in midweek.

However, the Mexican side were unfortunate in their clash against the Red Bulls. Their attacking failed to click in midweek, but that could change on Sunday. Therefore, the Liga MX club looks to be the standout selection.
