Expectations are high for the U.S. men’s national team ahead of a first World Cup hosted in North America in over three decades.
The U.S. are one of three co-hosts for the expanded 48-team tournament, with the majority of matches being played on American soil despite Canada and Mexico also staging fixtures throughout the competition.
Mauricio Pochettino looks to guide the USMNT to success at the tournament. While competing for the trophy will be nigh on impossible, home advantage could help spur on the Stars and Stripes.
The USMNT’s opponents for the World Cup remain unknown, but they will soon discover their adversaries for the group stage.
