Prediction: 1-1
Los Angeles FC
Sparkles will be flying when Seattle Sounders and Los Angeles FC lock horns at Lumen Field in what is expected to be an interesting MLS game. Seattle are eyeing their seventh consecutive league win, but Sunday’s clash will be anything but a walk in the park for the home side. Both Josh Atencio and Stuart Hawkins are back from the international duty, while Braudilio Rodrigues remains in the treatment room.
The Black and Gold, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Real Salt Lake. Los Angeles FC aim to overtake LA Galaxy in top position, but beating Seattle on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, both sides should be happy with one point from the match. Timothy Tillman limped off with injury in the midweek draw, with Kei Kamara likely to step up.
Highlighted Team (Los Angeles FC):
Seeing that Los Angeles FC will be competing in Major League Soccer from the 2018 season, the club chiefs did well to reinforce the squad. Several high-profile players joined the club in the winter of 2018, with Mexican ace Carlos Vela being the biggest name to sign a deal with LAFC.
The new expansion team will host their rivals at Banc of California, the stadium which is planned to be opened on April 29, 2018. The venue should hold up to 22,000 spectators. Los Angeles FC will be coached by Bob Bradley in the 2018 MLS campaign and they will be wearing black and gold kits in the USA professional soccer league. Speaking of their bitterest rivals, there will be fireworks when Los Angeles FC face LA Galaxy in the Major League Soccer.
District 9 Ultras and Black Army 1850 are considered the club's biggest supporters groups and it has to be noted that they used to support Chivas USA. Los Angeles FC were founded on October 30, 2014.
