The tournament will coincide with the 2024 Olympics, as the NWSL takes a break from its regular season with matches that are likely to see several fringe players get opportunities to shine.
The Spirit will be missing several key players due to Olympic duty, with Croix Bethune, Trinity Rodman, Casey Krueger, Hal Hershfelt, Gabby Carle and Leicy Santos all away with their national teams.
Chivas and the Spirit will also face NJ/NY Gotham FC and the Chicago Red Stars in Group D of the Summer Cup.
