The team arrived in Jacksonville on Monday. They posted a picture on Twitter on Tuesday of the players running on the beach.
The current record is 44,428 set back in 2012 when the men's national team beat Scotland in a friendly. It's also the record for a national team game in Florida.
Saturday's tune-up will also be the most attended match of the Send-Off series. Nearly 25,000 people watched the game against Azerbaijan in San Francisco. And a sellout crowd of 27,000 were on hand at Red Bull Arena in New Jersey as Team USA beat Turkey 2-1 on Sunday.
