FIFA confirmed that LAFC will face Club América on May 31 for a crucial playoff match to secure the final spot in the upcoming Club World Cup. This playoff was necessitated by Club León's exclusion from the tournament due to a violation of multi-club ownership rules, a decision upheld by the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Latino clubs LAFC and Club América are pursuing entry into Group D, where they would join Flamengo, Esperance de Tunis, and Chelsea if victorious.
The playoff match on May 31 will determine who qualifies for the Club World Cup following Club León's disqualification due to multi-club ownership rules.
LAFC enters the playoff after finishing as runners-up to Club León in the Concacaf Champions League, while Club América secured top confederation ranking.
