Prediction: 1-2
Los Angeles Galaxy
BC Place will host Thursday’s MLS game between Vancouver Whitecaps and Los Angeles Galaxy. The Canadian outfit are on a three-game losing run with slim playoffs chances, and given their shaky defence, home win should not be considered. Lucas Cavallini is banned for the match, while all Sebastian Berhalter, Deiber Caicedo, and Cristian Gutierrez are out of contention with injuries.
La Galaxy, on the other hand, are only three points behind the playoffs berth, and with a couple of games in hand. Since the visitors want this win more than the hosts, we predict that Javier Hernandez Chicharito and Co. are going to emerge triumphant in the midweek clash. Both Sega Coulibaly and Raheem Edwards are banned for the match, while the likes of Jonathan Perez and Jorge Villafana miss out with injuries. In their last meeting in the Major League Soccer LA Galaxy defeated Vancouver 5-2.
Highlighted Player (Jonathan dos Santos):
While playing at a youth tournament in France, Jonathan Dos Santos was spotted by FC Barcelona scouts, who were delighted with what they saw. The Barca chiefs decided to bring Jonathan and his brother Giovani to La Masia, with both passing the trial.
The Mexican midfielder, who was born in Monterrey on April 26, 1990, scored 6 goals in 81 appearances for Barcelona B from 2009 to 2012, but he played no more than 14 games for the senior team in the Spanish top flight. On July 9, 2014 Jonathan dos Santos moved to Villareal and he scored his first La Liga goal in December against Deportivo La Coruna.
The Mexico international played an important role at Villarreal until 2017 when he decided to sign a contract with MLS club Los Angeles Galaxy. The biggest success of his career, though, is winning the UEFA Champions League title in the 2010/2011 season with Barca. Unlike his brother, Jonathan’s preferred foot is right.
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.
