The summer of soccer will take a new look this year with the FIFA Club World Cup, which comes to the U.S. for the first edition of the expanded competition that will see 32 teams from around the world compete for a share of the $1 billion prize purse.

Reigning US Open Cup holders LAFC meanwhile boast former EPL stars Hugo Lloris and striker Olivier Giroud amongst their lineup. Steve Cherundolo's team had to make it through a playoff against Mexican outfit Club America to reach the Club World Cup and come into today's game on an unbeaten run of 10 games.
