DC United is just inside the playoff spots with 16 points from 13 games, but it has not looked exceptional in its recent games.
The Black & Red has lost its previous four matches in all competitions, netting just two goals in the process.
It most recently played out a 0-0 stalemate away against Philadelphia Union, but it could have taken more from the encounter.
DC United has just eight points in six games at Audi Field this season, the joint-fewest of any team in the division at home, albeit it is unbeaten in its last two.
Los Angeles Galaxy has had a terrible start to the MLS season, with only nine points from 12 games, putting it at the bottom of the Western Conference, though there is still plenty of time to turn their season around.
It's incredibly tight near the bottom of the standings, with Galaxy still just five points out of the playoffs, and its started to improve in recent weeks, winning 2-1 at home against San Jose Earthquakes.
LA Galaxy has only picked up two points in six away games, scoring once and surrendering ten, and that record desperately needs improvement.
