• Today’s Starting XI has an average age of 23 years, 255 days.

• The USMNT lineup averages 24 caps and 14 in official competition.

• Gregg Berhalter makes three changes to the Starting XI that faced El Salvador on Thursday night, inserting defender Miles Robinson and forwards Brenden Aaronson and Gyasi Zardes.

• Nine players are age 24 and younger: Antonee Robinson and Miles Robinson (24); Weston McKennie and Christian Pulisic (23); Tyler Adams (22); Brenden Aaronson, Sergiño Dest, and Chris Richards (21); Yunus Musah (19)

• Seven starters also began the USA’s September qualifier against Canada on Sept. 5, 2021, in Nashville: Aaronson, Adams, Dest, A. Robinson, M. Robinson, Pulisic, Turner

• Chris Richards and Miles Robinson pair in central defense for the second time tonight. They first partnered in the 2-1 qualifying win against Costa Rica on Oct. 13, 2021 in Columbus.

• Two players in the lineup have previously scored against Canada. Gyasi Zardes bagged a brace against Les Rouges in the 4-1 Concacaf Nations League group stage win on Nov. 15, 2019, in Orlando and Brenden Aaronson scored the opening goal in the 1-1 draw against Canada on Sept. 5, 2021 in Nashville.

• Brenden Aaronson and Tyler Adams continue as the only USMNT players to appear in all 10 World Cup Qualifying matches this cycle.

• Tyler Adams captains the USMNT for the seventh time today. The team is 4-0-2 in matches where Adams wears the armband.

• Adams and substitute defender DeAndre Yedlin are each on caution watch for this match. Should either player pick up a yellow card, they would be suspended for Wednesday’s match against Honduras.

• Adams, Weston McKennie and Yunus Musah partner together in midfield for the fifth time during World Cup Qualifying. The trio previously worked the 2-0 win against Jamaica (October 7), 2-1 win against Costa Rica (Oct. 13), 2-0 win against Mexico (Nov. 12) and Thursday’s 1-0 win against El Salvador.

• Substitutes Reggie Cannon and Sean Johnson are the only two players on the matchday squad without a World Cup Qualifying appearance.

• With teams limited to dressing 23 players, Sebastian Lletget and Gabriel Slonina are not part of today’s matchday squad. Zack Steffen still has not traveled to join the team and remains listed as day-to-day.
• Today’s game will be the 38th meeting all-time between the USA and Canada. The USMNT holds a 16-9-12 advantage all-time and is 12-1-7 in the modern era (since 1990), outscoring Canada 29-7 during that span.

• Canada holds the advantage in World Cup qualifying as the U.S. trails 4-6-4 in the series. Les Rouges hold a 4-1-1 advantage in qualifiers played on Canadian soil. The lone U.S. win came in the last qualifier in Canada, a 3-0 victory on Nov. 7, 1997 in Burnaby, British Columbia that clinched qualification for the 1998 FIFA World Cup.

• Cesar Ramos of Mexico is the center referee for today’s match. The USMNT is 3-2-2 in matches officiated by Ramos, who has officiated two U.S. games in the last 12 months: the 1-0 Gold Cup quarterfinal win against Jamaica on July 25, 2021 in Arlington, Texas and the 1-0 World Cup qualifying defeat at Panama on Oct. 10, 2021 in Panama City.
