LOS ANGELES FC
Los Angeles FC won 2, drawn 1, and lost 2 of their last 5 games. If they can maintain this then they will win their their second Supporters’ Shield, which they last won in 2019. Nevertheless, they have other teams breathing down their necks, with Real Salt Lake and Austin FC just 2 and 3 points behind respectively.
In their last game, LAFC drew 1-1 away to Seattle Sanders to make it 7 points from their last 3 games. The home side will be hoping to take this momentum into the match against NY red Bulls. They already met in a pre-season game which LAFC won 6-1 an a repeat of the same would be welcome.
NEW YORK RED BULLS
New York Red Bulls have won 4 of their last 5 games in all competitions but their recent league form reads W2 D1 L2 in their last 5 league games. In their last match, they dismissed New York City FC 3-0 in the US Open Cup. They will thus approach this game brimming with confidence that they can get another big win.
New York Red Bulls have the best away form in the MLS this season with 5 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses. Nevertheless, they have not won away from home since April and this is something coach wants to change. With several notable players missing with injury, NY red Bulls face an uphill task as they try to change their recent fortunes.
