Philadelphia Union team news

Philadelphia Union face a few injury concerns ahead of this match. Goalkeeper Andre Blake and defender Olivier Mbaizo are both doubtful with knee injuries and will be assessed before kickoff.

Center-backs Ian Glavinovich and Neil Pierre are expected to remain sidelined due to similar issues. Despite these absences, the Union’s attack remains potent, led by Tai Baribo, who is tied atop the league’s scoring charts and particularly effective at home, having scored five of his goals at Subaru Park. No new suspensions are reported for Philadelphia.

LA Galaxy team news

LA Galaxy’s squad is severely depleted by injuries and suspensions. Edwin Cerrillo is suspended due to yellow card accumulation. Key attacking players Gabriel Pec, Joseph Paintsil, and Riqui Puig are all ruled out, with Puig’s absence especially damaging given his importance to the team’s midfield creativity and control.

The Galaxy have also lost several veteran contributors from last season, and Marco Reus, expected to step up in Puig’s absence, has been limited by injuries and is unlikely to feature heavily.

With Christian Ramirez responsible for half of the team’s away goals this season, the Galaxy’s attacking threat remains limited as they search for solutions in a difficult campaign.
