Tickets originally purchased for the match will be honoured for the rescheduled fixture. The match will be available on Apple TV - MLS Season Pass.
In this Leagues Cup, neither of the two teams has suffered a defeat, but in their last 5 direct confrontations, Philadelphia are considered the favorite as the Red Bulls haven't been able to beat them in any of those matches. Three matches ended in victory for Philadelphia, and two in a draw.

These teams have had a quite similar path in this Leagues Cup 2023. Both lost their first match and won the following two. It will also be the first time these squads face each other in their history, so we will surely witness a very entertaining match. Both teams will seek to maintain the prestige of their leagues.

Charlotte FC have performed slightly better in this Leagues Cup 2023, as they have yet to suffer a defeat. On the other hand, Houston Dynamo has been improving throughout the tournament and looks more comfortable on the field with each game.
On July 3rd, we saw the last encounter between these two teams in the MLS, and the result was a 2-1 victory in favor of Charlotte. We will be expecting to see what happens today in Texas.
