The United States' starting lineup is set for Monday night's knockout game vs. Belgium at the 2026 FIFA World Cup (8 pm ET | FOX, Telemundo, Peacock).

The winner of this Round of 16 match advances to the quarterfinals, where Spain await on July 10 in Los Angeles.

3-4-3 formation (left to right)

• F: Christian Pulisic, Folarin Balogun, Weston McKennie
• M: Antonee Robinson, Malik Tillman, Tyler Adams, Sergiño Dest
• D: Tim Ream (c), Chris Richards, Alex Freeman
• GK: Matt Freese

The USMNT have an unchanged lineup from their 2-0 victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina in the Round of 32.

That includes striker Folarin Balogun, whose red-card suspension was pushed back earlier this week. Balogun is the team's leading goalscorer with three goals this World Cup.

For MLS representation, Charlotte FC center back Tim Ream captains the side and New York City FC goalkeeper Matt Freese is between the sticks.

Tyler Adams (Red Bull New York) and Alex Freeman (Orlando City) are both MLS homegrown alums. Weston McKennie (FC Dallas) also developed in MLS.

4-3-3 formation (left to right)

• F: Leandro Trossard, Charles De Ketelaere, Dodi Lukébakio
• M: Nicolas Raskin, Amadou Onana, Youri Tielemans (c)
• D: Maxim De Cuyper, Brandon Mechele, Nathan Ngoy, Timothy Castagne
• GK: Thibaut Courtois

Youri Tielemans captains Belgium after the Aston Villa midfielder netted a brace in their 3-2 comeback win over Senegal in the Round of 32.

Leandro Trossard headlines the attack, while stars Jérémy Doku, Romelu Lukaku and Kevin De Bruyne are available off the bench.

Belgium beat the US in the countries' last World Cup meeting, a 2-1 extra-time victory at Brazil 2014. 

Lukaku and De Bruyne both scored in the match. Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois is another holdover from that Round of 16 showdown.
