The last four teams in the CONCACAF Champions Cup semi-finals will battle it out for a place in the final as with the second legs on the horizon this week.

Liga MX giants Club America were held to a 1-1 draw at Estadio Azteca in their first-leg matchup against fellow Mexican opposition Pachuca. The Eagles sit atop the Liga MX Clausura standings while Pachuca aren’t too far behind in seventh place, and America will look to carry over their league form into the second leg at Estadio Hidalgo Tuesday night.

The other side of the bracket sees reigning MLS Cup champions Columbus Crew travel south of the border to take on Mexican outfit Monterrey. The Crew were victorious in the first leg, winning 2-1 thanks to a second-half striker from Jacen Russell-Rowe.

With the first legs done and dusted, everything is at stake in the second leg matchups this week with all four teams eager to get their hands on the coveted Champions Cup.

The Champions Cup semi-finals are played over two legs as Columbus and America played host in their first-leg games. In the second leg, Columbus and America will hit the road to take on their respective opponents in Rayados and Pachuca.

Unlike the UEFA Champions League, the Champions Cup still uses away goals to determine tiebreakers if necessary. If Pachuca were to hold America to a 0-0 draw in the second leg, they would progress to the final since they scored an away goal in the first leg. Thus, if Monterrey won 1-0 in their second leg clash with the Crew, they would advance to the final as they scored two away goals to Columbus’ two home goals in the 2-2 aggregate score.

As the first legs were played last week, the second legs will kick-off on Tuesday, April 30 and Wednesday, May 1.
