Recent form

LA Galaxy

LA Galaxy's recent form has been impressive, with four wins in their last six games, propelling them to 3rd position in the league table. Despite their latest defeat against local rivals Los Angeles FC, the Galaxy had previously enjoyed a four-game winning streak, which included a convincing 3-0 away victory against San Jose Earthquakes and a 4-2 home win over Sporting Kansas City, showcasing their ability to score goals. During this six-game period, LA Galaxy scored an average of 2 goals per game while conceding only 1, resulting in a positive goal difference of 6. Additionally, they managed to keep three clean sheets, demonstrating their defensive prowess.

Minnesota United

Minnesota United's recent form has been poor, with the team suffering a run of five consecutive defeats in their last six games. During this period, they have struggled defensively, conceding a total of 15 goals at an average of 2.5 per game. The team's attacking performance has also been underwhelming, scoring only 7 goals in these six matches. A particularly high-scoring game occurred on June 20th, when Minnesota United lost 5-3 to FC Dallas. The team's only respite came in the form of a 1-1 draw against FC Dallas on June 9th. Currently sitting 8th in the league with 29 points from 21 games, Minnesota United will need to address their defensive frailties and improve their attacking output to turn their form around and climb the table.
