Guess the Starting XI – Champions Cup vs. C.S. Cartaginés (Second Leg)

Welcome back, everyone.

The Vancouver Whitecaps return to the Champions Cup on Wednesday when they host Costa Rican side C.S. Cartaginés at BC Place, following a 0-0 draw in the first leg last week.

Looking at Vancouver’s squad, I’d guess that both Kenji Cabrera and Edier Ocampo will be right back in the starting XI, having been rested against RSL. Similarly, Jeevan Badwal may have earned another start after a strong showing last week. No new injuries to report: Gauld, Adekugbe, and Veselinovic are still out. Sabaly has joined the team but is just getting back into training, while Caicedo is still a bit of a question mark.

Okay, on to rules and standings!

Guess the XI – Competition Rules

• Predictions are considered valid only if posted in the correct match thread before the official lineup is announced (typically about one hour before kickoff).

• You earn 1 point for each correctly predicted player in the Starting XI.
• You earn an additional 4 bonus points for correctly predicting all 11 starters.

• You earn 5 points for correctly predicting the match result (Win/Draw/Loss).
• This increases to 10 points if you also correctly predict the exact scoreline.

• Therefore, a perfect prediction (Starting XI + result + exact scoreline) is worth a maximum of 25 points.
