They are coming off a 1-3 over Minnesota United andalso resting some of their key players. They are league leaders and are now unbeaten in eight matches.
Vancouver have pulled off surprises in this tournament by eliminating Monterrey and Pumas, two favorites, both times benefiting from the away goal rule.
