LA Galaxy and León get a break from their league challenge to fight for a possible trophy in this Leagues Cup Group Stage fixture.
These teams have little in common geographically as León have to travel 2500 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
León could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Leagues Cup game only four sleeps ago.
LA Galaxy form and stats
The club members are hoping that LA Galaxy will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 2-4 away loss in the match against Vancouver Whitecaps (placed 1st). A goal frenzy last time out for Galaxy, with a total of 6 goals in the match against Vancouver Whitecaps. Fun stuff to watch! Midfield player Brugman got a match rating of 7.65 in that game, the max score being 10. Brugman scored one goal, hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 65 successful passes (of 73 total).
Ahead of that match, LA Galaxy won a home game hosting Philadelphia Union (3-1).This is expected to be a close game, with LA Galaxy perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Vancouver Whitecaps are coming to town in four days.
