Los Angeles Galaxy vs FC Dallas
📖 The Preview
Galaxy are in a real mess here. They're sitting in the relegation zone with barely any breathing room, and losing Puig and Thommy to injury really hurts their attacking options. Dallas, meanwhile, have won four of their last ten and carry a strong head-to-head record against this lot, with five wins from eight meetings. Galaxy will nick one, because Dallas aren't exactly airtight at the back, but three away goals feels right given the pressure and the personnel problems the hosts are carrying.
