It's still early in the Major League Soccer season, but we are learning more and more about the teams. Here is the Orlando City - Los Angeles FC preview!
Los Angeles FC could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Major League Soccer game only four sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Seattle Sounders. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
These teams have little in common geographically as Los Angeles FC have to travel 4000 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Orlando City form and stats
0 victories, 1 draw and 0 defeats. That’s what Orlando City have to build on here at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex Field 17 in the Major League Soccer. Two home wins in a row for Orlando City bring valid hopes of a third.
A nice win for Orlando last time playing, versus Montreal Impact. That was also a home game and the match ended 1-0 with Tesho Akindele scoring for the victors. A 1-1 draw away before that, with Philadelphia Union the opponent.
At ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex Field 17, Orlando City has the goal stats of 0-0 (for/against) from 1 league fixture.
Los Angeles FC form and stats
Two travels in a row for Los Angeles FC, whose manager B. Bradley could celebrate last time after the Major League Soccer win against Seattle Sounders. Preceding that match was the 2-2 draw at home vs Portland Timbers.
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last two meetings: zero - one - one (Orlando City wins - draws - Los Angeles FC wins). As for goals, two matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), zero had two or less.Top Goalscorers
