The New England Revolution don’t just have a mountain to climb on Tuesday at Club América, they have to scale Mount Everest.
América destroyed the Revs 4-0 in the first leg of their Concacaf Champions Cup quarterfinal last week, taking an almost insurmountable lead back home to the Estadio Azteca.
It may just be a matter of damage control in the second leg for Revs coach Caleb Porter, who has indicated he may rotate his squad with almost no hope of progression.

That will suit América manager André Jardine just fine, as his side is in the middle of another Liga MX title pursuit. Las Aguilas are level on points with Toluca atop the table after a 1-1 draw with Santos Laguna over the weekend.
With a match against Toluca coming up at the weekend, Jardine likely will jump at the chance to rotate his squad as well.
The winner of this tie will face the winner of Pachua vs. Herediano in the semifinal. With Pachuca winning its first leg 5-0 in Costa Rica, an all-Liga MX semifinal looks inevitable.
Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the match.
