📰 Team News: Los Angeles Galaxy

Los Angeles Galaxy manager Greg Vanney has to currently contend with reduced team options. Riqui Puig (Cruciate ligament tear) and Marco Reus (Hamstring injury) can’t be considered.

✨ Prediction

Our thinking is that Los Angeles Galaxy may not find it easy to find the net against this St. Louis City outfit who we think should score at least once to gain the upper hand.

We’ve gone for a hard-fought contest, finishing with a 1-0 winning margin for St. Louis City at full-time.

Let’s see.
