A big week of action is ahead for Toronto FC and the Houston Dynamo. The Canadian and American domestic cup winners will have their first test in the CONCACAF Champions League. Both clubs have had very eventful offseasons and, after both missed the 2018 Major League Soccer playoffs, it will be the hopeful start of a resurgence.
On Tuesday, Toronto will take the pitch against Independiente La Chorrera at 7:00 PM EST. Shortly after, Houston will face Guastatoya at 10:00 PM EST. The start of the CCL is here.
Here are three things to watch for from the two opening matches for the MLS clubs.
