Los Angeles FC vs LA Galaxy Prediction: LAFC will bounce back

The leader LAFC faces the 8th placed LA Galaxy in another exciting MLS match. The league leaders are only 2 points above Austin FC and will look to maintain the momentum to keep their place on top of the table. LA Galaxy faces tough competition from Dallas and Nashville who are on the same points as they are, so they can not afford to take their foot off the gas.

LAFC are on a path to recovery in this match after they fell to a 1-0 defeat against Vancouver Whitecaps in their last match. Hopefully, the team has had some time to refresh and rethink after putting up a horror show in that game. On the attack front, they looked totally lost as they didn’t manage to register a single shot on target. In their last 5 games, they have managed 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. They will be desperate to return to winning ways and cement their spot on the log.

LA Galaxy ran out big winners last time out against CF Montreal with a 4-0 win. Before that, they struggled for consistency, losing to both Minnesota United and Sacramento Republic in a row. It's hard to tell if their 4-0 win last time out will continue here in this game. In their last 5 games, they have 2 wins, 2 losses and 1 draw. A win against the league leaders will go a long way to boost their morale for the remainder of the season.

The head to head record between these two dates as far back as 2018 when they first met. In their last 10 matches against each other, LA Galaxy leads the duel by 8:2.

• LAFC: Tomás Romero(COVID), I. Tajouri-Shradi(Injury), Julian Gaines(Injury), Erik Dueñas (Injury)
• LA Galaxy: Chase Gasper(Injury), Jorge Villafaña(Injury), Adam Saldaña(Injury)

I think LAFC have had enough time to reboot and refresh from their last defeat. They can snatch a win here.
