Forge FC vs Tigres kick-off time
Forge FC and Tigres will kick off on 4 Feb 2026 at 00:00 GMT and 19:00 EST.
Match Preview
Forge are hoping for a change of fortune in a different competition, as they have lost their last two matches in the Canadian Premier League. The Hammers booked their place in the CONCACAF Champions Cup after winning the Canadian Premier League Shield and they are hoping to cause an upset against the 2020 North American champions, Tigres.
Tigres snapped a two-match winless run when they overcame Club Leon in their most recent game and they have assembled a squad that is bidding to win both the Liga MX and Champions Cup. The Tigers, who boast former Spanish La Liga player Diego Lainez and ex-French Ligue 1 striker André-Pierre Gignac, should have enough firepower to overcome Forge.

>How to watch on the Big Screen
Watching on your phone or laptop is fine, but live sports belong 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.
