While one American begins a Europa League campaign, the majority of this week’s action will come from Mexico.
Christian Pulisic serves as this week’s headliner as Borussia Dortmund begins Europa League play after crashing out of the UEFA Champions League. The German powerhouse takes on Atalanta, kickstarting the Round of 32.
In Mexico, Liga MX play continues as several Americans could face off. Omar Gonzalez and Pachuca face the contingent of Americans at Club Tijuana while Landon Donovan could build off his recent Club Leon debut in a clash with Jorge Villafana’s Santos Laguna.
