The season 2025 in MLS has indeed been a wonder for the Whitecaps and Vancouver being first in the Western Conference with an impressive record of 8 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss. This team is in excellent form, having won 4 consecutively while remaining undefeated in its last 10 games. The team has been almost untouchable, winning 4 of the 5 games they played at BC Place in recent weeks.
Their last win was a 2-1 victory at the RSL, proving that this team can stand up to the test of time. The Whitecaps have kept scoring at least 12 goals in the last 9 matches with first blood in 7 of them and have crossed the 2.5 goal mark on at least 5 occasions in the last seven games. In defense, they've been tight, conceding only in 3 out of their last 3 matches.
Off field, the team entered the streaming spotlight after reaching the Finals of the Concacaf Champions Cup for the very first time, following a resounding 5–1 aggregate win over Inter Miami CF, propelling them into second place in the latest Concacaf Club Rankings. Standouts such as Brian White and Sebastian Berhalter were key to this achievement and have since caught the interest of U.S. Men's National Team selectors.

✈️ Los Angeles FC: form and statistics
Currently, with five wins, two draws, and four losses to their record, LAFC stands tall at 5th position in the Western Conference. The team has suffered from the inconsistency in form over the past few weeks, however, they have now embarked upon a four-match unbeaten streak, recently beating Houston with 2-0 away from home. Conversely, their away record has been quite poor conversely, with just one win in their last five road games.
Offensively especial, things are looking good considering that more than 2.5 goals have been scored in four out of their last five matches and that there has been a BTTS in four of those matches. While looking defensively, the LAFC has managed to keep their opponents under 10.5 corners in four of the last five fixtures.
Backstage at LAFC, the team is set to get into a high-stakes playoff duel against Club América on May 31, with a promotion slot to the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup at stake. Further, the club is rumoured to be courting veteran midfielder Thomas Müller in an indication of strengthening the squad.
📝 Los Angeles FC Lineup
🔖 Expected Lineup: Lloris; Segura, Hollingshead, Long, Palencia; Delgado, Igor Jesus, Tillman; Martínez, Bouanga, Ordaz
💊 Out: Odin Holm, M. Chanot, L. Dellavalle
👤Head coach: Steve Cherundolo
