Episode 480: Leagues Cup 2026 Preview Part 2

In this episode of the Designated Players Podcast, we're preparing for the Leagues Cup, which for those unfamiliar, is a cup competition involving teams from both MLS and Liga MX! In this episode we will be making predictions for phase one, specifically the western teams this episode. For predictions for the remaining teams, give the last episode a listen. We've gone through each team and listed their current position in the standings and one player to watch, and some of their recent "big signings". Let us know what you think of our predictions! Also, keep an eye out for the knockout stage predictions coming soon.
