Should the ’Caps advance, they will host the final of the Canadian Championship in late September at BC Place, facing the winner of the other semifinal between MLS Eastern Conference team Toronto FC and CPL side Forge FC.
The ’Caps will be looking to win a third consecutive Voyageurs Cup after winning the Canadian Championship in both 2022 and 2023. The winner of the Canadian Championship will qualify for the 2025 Concacaf Champions Cup. Pacific FC advanced to the semifinal round after winning 2-1 against fellow CPL side Atlético Ottawa in the quarterfinal round.
This will be the third time that the ’Caps face Pacific FC in the TELUS Canadian Championship. In 2021, the CPL side pulled off the upset, and in 2023 the ’Caps returned the favour on the way to winning the Voyageurs Cup.
