Vancouver Whitecaps coach Vanni Sartini isn't expecting any of his players to look past Tuesday's cup tie against visiting Cavalry FC, even with a crowd of more than 50,000 expected Saturday for a high-profile league date with Inter Miami at B.C. Place Stadium.

"For all of the guys who were lucky enough to be in both the games, those are probably the best memories of a Whitecaps player. It would be fantastic to do three and it only happens if we ." On Wednesday, it's CPL champion Forge FC at CF Montreal and Atletico Ottawa at Pacific FC in an all-CPL affair.Cavalry coach Tommy Wheeldon Jr. is well aware of what awaits the Whitecaps in the weekend

And that's something, once we get through this first round of games, the second round I think you'll see our results match our performances," he explained.

Midfielder Andres Cubas is also sidelined with a minor ankle issue.In the event of an aggregate tie after the second leg, away goals count double. If that doesn't separate the sides, they go to a penalty shootout.
