This weekend offers the final slate of games before U.S. coach Mauricio Pochettino names his roster for the October international window. Some players are safe bets to make the team, but others are on the bubble and need to have good performances to force their way into the team.
Chris Richards and Christian Pulisic will get to take on two of the best teams in the world. Meanwhile Tanner Tessmann is playing at a high level and is trying to get back into the mix for the first time since the Nations League disaster in March.
Here are the top 5 best games weekend to watch from an American perspective.
