Finally, Houston Dynamo will clash with Sporting KC, a match scheduled for November 26 at 6:00 pm.

The four ties look very even and will be great encounters to find out the 4 teams that will reach the prelude to the grand final.

It will be a long week of preparation for all the contenders, many of them with absences due to national team call-ups, as this week is FIFA International Break and the teams will not have complete squads to work towards the playoffs.
