The teams in the First Round of the 2019 Lamar Hunt US Open Cup now know who they could play in Round 2.
The United States Soccer Federation announced the potential pairings for the Second Round of the 106th edition of the tournament that will take place the week of May 14-15. In Round 2, the 25 teams from the USL Championship (Division 2 pro) will join the competition.
The hosts for the First Round, and all future rounds, are determined by random selection. If both teams apply to host and both teams meet the federation’s minimum venue standards, then the home team is decided by random draw.
The winners from Round 2 will advance to the Third Round which is scheduled to be played during the last week of May. Major League Soccer teams will join the tournament in Round 4.
All games will be broadcast live on ESPN+ as part of the tournament’s new media rights agreement.
The dates and kickoff times for each game still have to be finalized. See the results of the draw listed below:
