LA Galaxy return to Major League Soccer action this weekend to take on Real Salt Lake in a top-of-the-table Western Conference clash at America First Field.
RSL stretched their unbeaten run to 15 straight league games following a dramatic 4-3 away victory over Sporting Kansas City during the midweek. The Western Conference outfit's unbeaten streak includes nine victories and six draws that have put them in first place in the division with 37 points, just three points ahead of the Galaxy with their upcoming opponents having a game in hand.
The Galaxy, meanwhile, come into this contest off the back of a 2-0 win over the improved NYCFC, with Dejan Joveljic and Diego Fagundez each getting on the scoresheet to propel LA to victory.
