Los Angeles Galaxy will look to protect their unbeaten home record in the 2024 MLS campaign when they play host to New York City FC at Dignity Health Sports Park on Wednesday.
The Galaxy are coming off a 4-2 win over Sporting Kansas City in which both teams combined for three goals in what can only be defined as a wild final 15 minutes of the game. The result ensured that the hosts remained near the summit of the Western Conference standings.
NYCFC, meanwhile, suffered their first defeat in over a month with a narrow 3-2 defeat to Columbus Crew Friday night.
