Since we already gave our key matchups and score predictions for Orlando City's Leagues Cup match Sunday vs. Atletico San Luis, we took a look at how the Liga MX side lost at CF Montreal on Tuesday, which opens up a lot of options for the Lions to win their group or at least advance, barring an absolutely hellish result. Oh, and we also reiterated our key matchups and score predictions, just for funsies.

This episode's mailbagbox, presented by WJ Dog Treats, asks us to rank the Eastern Conference teams by how much we dislike them and wants to know about Marvel movies and about clarifying something from our members-only newsletter (which you could get by subscribing here). Remember, if there’s anything — and we do mean anything — you want us to address on the show, just ask us by tweeting it to us at @TheManeLand with the hashtag #AskTMLPC, or hitting us up on Bluesky Social with that same hashtag.

After the mailbagbox, we discussed OCB's trip to face Carolina Core on the road. The teams have met twice previously — both in Kissimmee — and the Young Lions have drawn and lost those matches. Will the third time be a charm and finally end this eight-match winless skid? We'll find out on Saturday.

Finally, we discuss the United States getting through group play and making the knockout stage at the Olympics. The Yanks, including Orlando City's Duncan McGuire, face Morocco...well, starting an hour before this post dropped.

Here’s how No. 437 went down:

0:15 – Orlando City is not only in a great position to advance in Leagues Cup, but a fantastic spot to win the group.

10:20 – The mailbagbox asks about which teams we don't like in the Eastern Conference, superhero movies, and more.

34:50 – OCB is off to face Carolina Core for the third time and the United States men advance to the knockouts in Olympic soccer for the first time in a couple of decades.
