Toronto FC vs Cruz Azul: Storylines

Toronto FC came up strong against a tough opponent like León to book a ticket to the Concachampions quarterfinals. They'll have an even more difficult task ahead, though. After losing to Montreal and tying with Vancouver Whitecaps in the first two MLS rounds, Armas' team needs to bounce back, but the next rival probably won't make things easy.

The unbeaten leaders of the Liga MX Cruz Azul will have to take this tie seriously, though. With the domestic playoff spot already under their belt, Reynoso's men head to the regional competition trying to prove their strength outside their country as well.

The Máquina haven't lost in their last 14 league games, and that record would extend to 16 if we take into account the two matches against Arcahaie in the CCL. Despite they've surprisingly tied in the first leg, the Cementeros put eight past the Haitian team to advance to this stage.
