USMNT Weekend TV Guide & Open Thread (10/21-10/23)

Another weekend of action is upon us as we creep closer and closer to the big international break that sees the Hex begin with USA vs. Mexico on November 11. This weekend promises to be an exciting one stateside as MLS wraps up its regular season.

There are still many questions to be answered. The Supporters’ Shield is still up for grabs as FC Dallas (59 pts) and the Colorado Rapids (57 pts) battle it out for the shinny plate and the top playoff seed in the West.

There’s also a battle at the bottom of the West for the final playoff spot. Real Salt Lake, Sporting Kansas City, Seattle Sounders, and Portland Timbers are all still alive and are battling for the final three spots. Which one will be left out?

The weekend abroad sees a few interesting match-ups with Bobby Wood taking on Timmy Chandler to kick off the weekend. Pulisic Watch drags on with a match against USMNT outcast Alfredo Morales on Saturday morning. Later in the day Fabian Johnson and Julian Green could see the field in a battle of top of Champions League clubs in the Bundesliga.

It should be a fun weekend. As always, we’ll be in the comments to discuss any and everything throughout. See you down there! Here’s the TV schedule for notable USMNT players (all times Eastern):
