The 2025 edition of MLS is back in action with another set of matches this week as DC United lock horns with a struggling Los Angeles Galaxy side in an important encounter at the Dignity Health Sports Park on Saturday. Both teams have been in poor form this season and will want to win this game.
Los Angeles Galaxy vs DC United Preview
DC United are in 12th place in the MLS Eastern Conference standings and have not been at their best this season. The away side slumped to a 5-2 defeat at the hands of Nashville SC last week and will need to work hard to bounce back in this match.
Los Angeles Galaxy, on the other hand, are rooted to the bottom of the Western Conference league table and have struggled to impose themselves this season. The hosts eased past Vancouver Whitecaps by a 3-0 scoreline in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
