Team News

Los Angeles FC
Kansas City
  • Captain Vela missed out last time with a quad issue and will likely be out again here.
  • Palacios, Hwan, Cifuentes and Rodriquez are all away on international duty.
  • Star player Diego Rossi has also left the club this week on loan.
  • Eddie Segura and Kwadwo Opoku both remain out with knee injuries.
  • Dániel Sallói and Kinda are both in Europe on international duty.
  • Felipe Hernandez is currently away from the squad due to 'personal issues', and there's no timeline for when he might return.
  • The duo of Jaylin Lindsey and Nicolas Isimat-Mirin are both out for SKC with hamstring injuries.

Prediction

  • LAFC's form has hit a real stumbling block over the last few months and they've dropped all the way down to 11th in the West.
  • Three consecutive draws has seen SKC lost their grip on top spot in the West.
  • On current form, and with the number of starters missing for LAFC, it's hard to see past an SKC win here.
