    Sorry, that one isn't possible since both, Santos and Atlante, are group leaders ;)

    Re: CONCACAF Quarterfinal Matchup Predictions.

    Two years ago, Everton were a seeded team in the UEFA Cup draw.

    They had four buckets of eight teams each and UEFA chose one team from each bucket to put in the group. You'd end up with eight groups of five teams.

    I nailed all four that they pulled out to be in Everton's group that year.

    A.E. Larissa
    AZ Alkmaar
    FC Nurenberg
    Zenit St. Petersberg

    Too bad I wasn't playing the lottery. :D

    Re: CONCACAF Quarterfinal Matchup Predictions.

    another impossible result, Marathon and UNAM are 1st-place teams, Montreal and Cruz Azul 2nd-place teams.

    the first-place teams (UNAM, Atlante, Santos, and Marathon) will be drawn against the second-place teams. And you can't be drawn against a team from your previous group. So Houston can only be drawn against Santos, Atlante or Marathon.

    Sorry if this has been asked already: is the first match at home or away?

    If away, Atlante (Cancun) would be a nice choice for the Dynamo. :D

    I think he meant who hosts the first leg.

    I think Pot A does, but I'm not 100%. This is CONCACAF....

    oh OK. i know the answer, for the quarterfinals in February all Pot B teams (Dynamo) host the first leg. rewards Pot A team for winning the group by letting them host the 2nd leg.

    I wonder if the MFL is hoping for CA vs Mun., that would give them a shot at all 4 teams making the Semi Finals.

    *bump*

    i've been anxiously waiting for today. a while back on the FEMEXFUT website calendar i saw a 2pm start time for the draw. that may or may have not changed.

    Atlante is the most desiarable opponent and not because of the scantily clad women and the sandy beaches.

    Can't happen. Marathon and Cruz Azul were in the same group. They cannot face each other in the quarterfinals.

    Two Mexican teams will have to play each other in the quarters. Specifically, Cruz Azul has to play either Atlante, Pumas, or Santos. Marathon is guaranteed to play Houston, Montreal, or Puerto Rico in the quarters.

    a) Did anyone confirm if 2pm (central) is the draw time?

    b) I remember CONCACAF posted a video of the draw back in group stage. Does anyone know if they are gonna do it again? Bonus if it's live.

    Gah. That's unfortunate.

    I can't find any evidence of a live stream on their website.

    Oh well.
