On 27 August 2015, CONCACAF announced the ticket allocation process for the match. Both the United States Soccer Federation and the Mexican Football Federation received 30% of the tickets each, which was distributed through supporter groups. Another 30% was sold through a lottery where the general public could apply. The final 10% was given to local teams and sponsors. This system was to prevent the crowd being dominated by either team's supporters despite being on U.S. soil similar to previous Gold Cup finals. Each team could select up to 23 players for their squads. On 15 September 2015, CONCACAF announced the provisional team lists. The final 23-player squads were announced by CONCACAF on 5 October 2015. On 1 October, the final squad was announced. Head coach: Ricardo Ferretti  On 3 October, the final squad was announced. On 9 October, it was announced that Bobby Wood would replace Alejandro Bedoya due to illness. Head coach: Jürgen Klinsmann  A 2019 edition was initially planned, featuring the winners of the 2017 and 2019 tournaments. In November 2016, CONCACAF announced that the television rights for the 2019 edition have been sold to Fox Sports. On 26 July 2017, with their victory in the final of the 2017 CONCACAF Gold Cup, the United States ensured they would participate at a minimum in the 2019 CONCACAF Cup should they fail to win the 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup. However, on 15 March 2019, FIFA announced that the Confederations Cup would be abolished, with the 2021 FIFA Club World Cup taking place instead. This therefore also meant there would be no future editions of the CONCACAF Cup.
