New York Red Bulls vs LA Galaxy Preview
This MLS clash has been highly-anticipated due to the sheer size of both clubs, however, LA Galaxy have failed to live up to their illustrious name this season.
The six-time MLS Cup champions, the most in history, have made a terrible start to the season and are still on the hunt for their first victory of the campaign – picking up just three points from the opening 11 matches.
So far, Greg Vanney’s men have drawn three and lost eight in the MLS and are currently on a run of three consecutive defeats after a 1-0 loss to Sporting Kansas City last time out.
Suffering such a poor start to the season means LA Galaxy currently sit rock bottom of the Western Conference and have scored just eight goals in 11 games so far.
As for the New York Red Bulls, they currently sit 10th in the Eastern Conference, just two points away from the automatic playoff places and a point of the ‘wildcard’ positions.
Their most recent encounter came in the US Open Cup, beating the Colorado Springs 4-1 to progress into the last 16 where they will face FC Dallas on May 22nd.
Their league form has been rather inconsistent so far, failing to win consecutive matches all season but picking up good victories over the likes of Nashville SC and Toronto FC.
These two sides last met in December 2024 in the MLS Cup Final as LA Galaxy scored two goals in the opening 15 minutes to pick up a 2-1 win and win the iconic trophy.
