The LA Galaxy find themselves in an uncharted territory for this season. Once a force to reckon with in the Major League Soccer, they find themselves sitting 15th in the Western Conference with a dismal record of 0 wins, 3 draws, and 6 losses (lagalaxy.com). With the team having played nine matches, the fans have begun to lose patience as any thought of winning seems far-fetched.
The same night in the last game, Galaxy lost against Austin FC away with a score of 0-1, having 50% possession, 7 corners, 7 fouls, 3 yellow cards, and 4 shots on target (lagalaxy.com). A late goal from Brandon Vázquez sealed another defeat for the Galaxy, who had controlled some moments of the game. Their form has been DLLDL-however, things just seem to continue to worsen.
Although slightly better, it's not encouraging: home record: 1 win, 2 draws, and 2 losses; trends are all negative: winless in eight straight matches, conceding for four straight matches, and four of the last five finishing under 2.5 goals (sofascore.com). LA Galaxy have also seen the first goal scored against them in four out of their five previous contests while also seeing over 4.5 cards shown in five out of their last seven matches (mlssoccer.com).
The issues are not only tactical. Following the match against Austin, Eriq Zavaleta, Joseph Paintsil, and Matheus Nascimento were fined for an altercation that ensued after the game (mlssoccer.com). The off-field disorder reflects their on-field problems, and manager Greg Vanney must take action to stabilize the squad before it is too late.
📋 LA Galaxy Lineup
🔖 Expected Lineup: McCarthy – Garcés, Nelson, Yamane, Zavaleta – Cerrillo, Parente, Ramirez – Paintsil, Gabriel Pec, Fagúndez (fotmob.com)
⛔️ Out: M. Yoshida, Riqui Puig
👤Head coach: Greg Vanney

✈️ Portland Timbers: form and statistics
Meanwhile, the Galaxy has struggled, with Portland Timbers flourishing. They are currently positioned 5th in the Western Conference, having recorded 4 wins, 3 draws, and 2 losses (timbers.com). They are currently six matches unbeaten, demonstrating remarkable consistency and fighting spirit.
Their last match was an exciting 3-3 draw away at LAFC, with just 39% possession, 2 corner kicks, and 12 fouls committed while 4 yellow cards were shown against them (sofascore.com). Even when being outplayed, the Timbers counter-attacking threat was very much alive.
Away form for Portland is also good, having won 2 of their last four away games (sofascore.com). They certainly concede a lot – over 2.5 goals happened in four of their last five matches. And they scored the first goal in five out of their last six matches, which shows they are very aggressive (sofascore.com).
The attack of the Timbers has been led by stars such as Kevin Kelsy, who scored two goals in a 4-2 win over Sporting Kansas City, and David Ayala, who scored and assisted. Both players were named to the MLS Latino XI of the Week for their efforts.
Head coach Phil Neville keeps the squad in check: "There's no easy games in this league" (timbers.com). "We want to create our own destiny whether it's home or away," says defender Kamal Miller (timbers.com).
