The United States Men's national team (USMNT) will take on Slovenia in a friendly fixture at the Toyota Field on Saturday. It's their only warm-up fixture ahead of the Concacaf Nations League semi-final coming up in March.
USMNT's most recent outing was the second leg of the Concacaf Nations League quarter-final against Trinidad and Tobago in November and the result was a defeat. However, they had amassed a good enough lead in the first leg to book their place in the semi-final. They will use this fixture to prepare for the upcoming all-important semi-final against Jamaica.
Slovenia finished second behind Denmark in Group H of the Euro qualifiers, having won seven out of their 10 group fixtures. They will begin the Euro 2024 campaign later this year and will be looking to get some preparatory minutes under their belt.
