THE PREDICTION

The home team come into this on the back of a 2-1 win at home to Colorado Rapids after a disappointing start to the campaign for Bob Bradley’s men. LAFC, still led by captain Carlos Vela, managed to thrive in the first-half against Colorado with perennial top goalscorer Diego Rossi scoring a brace. They come up against a New York City side that were involved in their third straight match whereby they scored but didn’t win the game. They have scored in every game this season so far and, given that as well as LAFC’s potential return to form, this one could be one whereby both teams fancy themselves for a goal.
