Javier "Chicharito" Hernández is returning to his former team, and Chivas hope he and his teammates can vault them past the San Jose Earthquakes in West 2.

This World Cup-style tournament features 47 clubs – 18 from LIGA MX and 29 from MLS – pausing their domestic season for the month-long competition. The winner is crowned champion, and the top three finishers qualify for the 2025 Concacaf Champions Cup.

Greg Vanney's side leads the group after beating the Earthquakes in Wednesday's Cali Clásico (Leagues Cup version). Their knockout spot is also clinched, so now it's about securing the top seed.

Diego Fagúndez and Gabriel Pec have impressed all year, continuing their strong form in the mid-season tournament. Fagúndez notched his fifth goal in 27 appearances (all competitions) against San Jose, while Pec added his 11th assist in 26 matches (all competitions).

As LA sit atop the Western Conference, a Leagues Cup run could contribute to Supporters' Shield and MLS Cup success.

Chivas face a must-win match after losing in penalty kicks to San Jose in their Leagues Cup opener. The storied LIGA MX side can advance by winning in PKs or regulation time.

After Cade Cowell's homecoming against the Earthquakes, it's time for Chicharito's turn. Mexico's all-time leading scorer returns to the Galaxy with his boyhood club, having scored 39g/6a in 82 matches across all competitions from 2020-23.

Former LA midfielder Daniel Aguirre also returns to face his former club following his June 10 transfer.
