Prediction: 2-1
Houston Dynamo
Following four consecutive draws in MLS, Los Angeles Galaxy will look to return to winning ways in the Major League Soccer when they take on Houston Dynamo at Dignity Health Sports Park. LA Galaxy are determined to return to winning ways as soon as possible and we are positive they will go all guns blazing at the Orange Crush. Midfielder Joseph Paintsil should be the only absentee in the home team. Houston Dynamo, meanwhile, aim to climb to top seven in the Western Conference.
The Orange Crush, though, are not regarded as good travellers, which is probably the main reason why home win should be considered. Ghana midfielder Latif Blessing should sneak into the starting XI after coming as a substitute in the Texas derby, whilst Sebastian Kowalczyk serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards. All Sebastian Ferreira, Franco Escobar, and Nelson Quinones are sidelined with injuries.
Highlighted Player (Hector Herrera):
Mexico international Hector Herrera is a 26-year-old midfielder playing for Portugal giants FC Porto. Herrera began his career with Pachuca in 2010 and spent three years at the club before being sold to Porto. During his first season with the Dragons Herrera struggled for playing time, but he went on to cement his place in the starting eleven, becoming one of the most valuable players for the club.
Herrera has since them racked up over 110 performances for the Portugal side, scoring over 20 goals in the process. Full Mexico international since 2012, Hector Herrera represented his country at the 2014 World Cup.
During the summer of 2016 Herrera was heavily linked with a move away from Porto and was reported to have made a personal agreement with Italian side Napoli, but the €25 million asking price proved to be a stumbling block that ended up ruining the deal.
Highlighted Team (Los Angeles Galaxy):
Los Angeles Galaxy are probably the most famous American soccer club. The club have been participating in the MLS since 1996 and San Jose Earthquakes are considered their bitterest rivals. A number of top-class players were part of the team in the past, but, no doubt, David Beckham is the club’s most significant star. The former Manchester United star played for LA Galaxy from 2007 to 2012 and he scored 18 goals in 98 appearances in the league for the club.
Fellow England international Steven Gerrard is yet another Premier League ace who joined LA Galaxy. Stevie G signed a $9 million deal with the club in June, 2015. One year before he arrived to Los Angeles, the Galaxy won their fifth MLS Cup, with the team beating New England Revolution (2-1) in the final of the tournament, but winning the CONCACAF Champions League in 2000 is considered the club’s biggest success. The MLS outfit outplayed Olimpia of Honduras in the title game, with Ezra Hendrickson scoring the winning goal ten minutes before the final whistle.
Los Angeles Galaxy play their home games at StubHub Center, the stadium that was opened on June 1, 2003. The capacity of the venue is 27.000.
