Already with a slight first-leg advantage, the Vancouver Whitecaps look to hold serve at home and see themselves into the Canadian Championship final as they meet Pacific in the second leg of their semifinal matchup.
The MLS side won 1-0 in the first leg nearly two months ago, and after a disappointing early exit from the Leagues Cup, they have enjoyed a multi-week break in advance of this return to domestic action.
Sitting in a playoff position amidst the MLS table, the Whitecaps are also hoping to put themselves in position to secure a domestic cup trophy as they sit on the verge of the title match. Pacific, meanwhile, are near the bottom of the Canadian Premier League table and struggling for form heading into this pivotal game.

Vancouver Whitecaps vs. Pacific lineups & team news
The Vancouver Whitecaps boast an entirely clean bill of health heading into this match, with all their brightest stars fully fit and available for selection.
Brian White is having another stellar season up front, supported by the creative and dangerous Ryan Gauld, who scored the only goal of the first leg. White leads the squad in minutes this season, even ahead of goalkeeper Yohei Takaoka.
Vancouver projected starting lineup (3-5-2): Takaoka (GK) — Laborda, Veselinovic, Utvik — Ahmed, Vite, Cubas, Berhalter, Picault — B. White, L. Johnson.
Pacific striker Moses Dyer started the season strong but has been in and out of the lineup since the start of July, and likely would not take the field against his parent club anyways, at Pacific on loan this season from the Whitecaps.
Midfield lynchpin Sean Young, however, will be anchoring the squad again. The 23-year-old is a Pacific youth product and has been a key part of the team's makeup this season.
Pacific FC projected starting lineup (4-1-4-1): Gazdov (GK) — Mukumbilwa, Echeverry, Ceceri, Greco-Taylor — Young — Lamothe, Toussaint, Bahous, Yeates — O'Hea.
