What happened?
Toluca and América are the two teams that are being considered to host the next round of the Leagues Cup. Although talks are ongoing, there is no agreement yet. Sources close to the Liga MX have assured that the dialogue has not been easy, but it remains open for the two teams to play at home.

It is unknown when the final resolution will be taken, but it will have to be next week. The Liga MX will have to make a decision on who will host at home the next round of the Leagues Cup.
Currently, Toluca is in third place in the Liga MX with 6 points, 2 wins and 1 loss in 3 games. They have scored 6 goals and received 3 in the season. They are 1 point behind the leaders of Club América. Their last result was a 3-1 win over Necaxa on August 3.
Toluca will have their next game in the Liga MX on August 15 against Atlante FC in an away game. Currently, they are on a 2-game winning streak and their last 5 games have been 4 wins and 1 loss.
Next week, Toluca will have to face the Liga MX to resolve the situation of the Leagues Cup. The final resolution will have to be taken before August 26, when the next round of the tournament will be played.
