Match Preview

Nashville SC returns to GEODIS Park with a commanding two-goal cushion after a professional performance in the first leg. For the Canadian Premier League (CPL) side, Atlético Ottawa, the task is daunting: they must score at least twice against a high-flying MLS defence to have any hope of progressing to the Round of 16 - where a matchup with Lionel Messi and Inter Miami awaits.
The "Boys in Gold" couldn't have asked for a better start to 2026. Following their 2–0 win in the first leg, they demolished the New England Revolution 4–1 in their MLS season opener over the weekend.
Sam Surridge is the man of the moment, scoring in the first leg and adding a brace in the MLS opener. With new signing Cristian Espinoza already providing assists and young forward Woobens Pacius scoring against his former CPL roots, Nashville’s attack looks more balanced and lethal than ever. Expect manager B.J. Callaghan to rotate slightly, but given the carrot of an Inter Miami clash, he won't be taking any chances.
Ottawa’s debut in continental competition was a "welcome to the big leagues" moment. Despite holding 54% possession in the first leg, they struggled to turn that control into clear-cut chances. Their best opportunity was inadvertently blocked by their own player on the goal line—a symbol of the "mid-season form" they are still chasing.
To pull off a "Miracle in Music City," coach Diego Mejía needs more from stars like Ballou Tabla and Manny Aparicio. Ottawa must find a way to break Nashville's organization early; if they concede first, the aggregate lead likely becomes insurmountable.

Watching on your phone or laptop is fine, but live sports belongs on the big screen. Here is how to get the VPN working on your TV:
- Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
- Apple TV, Roku & Consoles: These devices often don't support direct VPN apps. The easiest workaround is to use Smart DNS (usually found in your VPN account settings) or Mirror/Cast the stream from your VPN-connected phone or laptop to your TV.
