Game Preview

Since the MLS restart, LA Galaxy has posted two losses and a tie. After losing at home to LAFC in El Trafico, 0-3, and to St. Louis City 1-3, they played 1-1 in San Jose vs. the Earthquakes.

Those two defeats in LA are what worry the fans, because their favorites have allowed 6 goals and scored just 1. And may we add that the Galaxy have won just 9 points at Dignity in 9 appearances, the second-worst in the conference.

Eric Quill’s FC Dallas side travels to California backed by Petar Musa’s fantastic performances. With 13 goals scored, this guy leads the MLS Golden Boot race.

Dallas’ recent results aren’t anything special: a win, a tie, and a loss since the restart. Yet their position in the West standings is solid, occupying 6th place with 26 points and a 32-25 goal difference in 17 MLS fixtures.

LA Galaxy vs. FC Dallas Head to Head

Dallas hosted Galaxy in April this year, with the game ending 2-2. Both teams have scored in 8 of the last 10 encounters between these two franchises.

LA Galaxy vs. FC Dallas Predictions

Galaxy is in poor shape, but they play at home. It’s hard for us to believe they might lose three in a row at Dignity. Still, our opinion here is better to bet on high efficiency, because Dallas likes playing offensive-minded soccer, while Galaxy has to attack and chase three points. Such a setup should land at least three goals in LA.
