El Trafico is arguably the biggest soccer game in the USA, with the two LA teams drawing too much hype and buzz. Tonight, we have the Galaxy hosting the LA FC at their Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson.

Before Betting on LA Galaxy vs. LA FC

The hosts are awaiting the FC in excellent shape, with four wins in a row and three consecutive clean sheets. Their victims were SKC, 4-2; NYCFC, 2-0; Real Salt Lake, 0-1; and San Jose, 0-3, the latter two on the road.

Steve Cherundolo’s boys haven’t felt the taste of loss at home since the year started, winning seven meetings and posting two ties. Seven of those encounters were with both teams netting, while six ended with three or more hits. Also, the previous six saw them netting at least twice.

LA FC is in even better form, having eleven matches without a loss at the moment. In ten, they ended up on the winning side, and seven saw them recording a clean sheet. On the other side, eight ended with the black and gold netting at least twice.

Overall, they are the No.1 in the West, with the same number of points as Real Salt Lake and Galaxy, but they have a game in hand, which gives them an additional edge over their rivals.

FC was better in the previous two El Traficos, the most recent being this season, when they triumphed in front of their own crowd, 2-1. Tilman and Bounagna netted for the hosts, while Aude scored for Galaxy. All three hits were inside the opening 45 minutes.
