Atlanta United will host D.C. United on July 26 and Santos Laguna on Aug. 4 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in its first two Leagues Cup matches.

The match against D.C. United is scheduled to start at 8 p.m., and the one against Santos Laguna is scheduled to start at 4 p.m.

This will be the second year for the Leagues Cup. Atlanta United failed to be one of the two teams to advance out of its three-team group in the tournament’s inaugural year.

Season-tickets holders already have passes for the D.C. United match. Tickets will go on sale for both matches at 10 a.m. April 5.

The Leagues Cup championship match is scheduled for Aug. 25. The top-three finishers will qualify for the 2025 CONCACAF Champions League.
