A big game is coming up between these two Western and Eastern conference teams. Do not take off and then we share the statistics of both teams in the MLS.

The last time these two teams met was on September 21, 2019 and on that occasion the LA Galaxy won 2-1 at home. That confrontation was full of fouls, yellow cards, corner kicks and many goals that we hope will be repeated today.

LA Galaxy and CF Montréal have met several times, of the last 5 games CF Montréal has won once, there was a tie and in the other 3 games the winner has been LA Galaxy.

The Los Angeles team is already in the stadium.

Midfielder Djordje Mihailovic (#8) is a fundamental piece of Montréal's offense by scoring a goal last game against Real Salt Lake and is the team's leading scorer in the tournament with 7 goals in 14 games played. Another key player for the team is defender Alistair Johnston (#22) who is the team's top assister with 3 assists in 16 games played and is a fundamental piece in generating dangerous plays for Montréal. He also scored a goal so we might as well see him score in Monday's game. Lastly, Romell Quioto (#30) plays in the forward position, he is the team's second highest scorer, he has scored 6 goals during the tournament and has also had 3 assists. All three players are considered key to CF Montréal's attacking attack and will be of paramount importance if they are to win.

CF Montréal has had a great start to the season in Major League Soccer, they are at the top of the tournament. Until week 16 of the tournament they have a total of 26 points with 8 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses. They are located in second place in the Eastern Conference and if they want to steal the first place from New York City they will have to win the game. In their last MLS game they won 2-1 against Charlotte FC. They arrive as the least favorites to win this game, however they could surprise and win.

The next three players are considered key to the LA Galaxy's offensive attack and any one of them is likely to score in the game against the Portland Timbers. Mexican player Javier Hernández (#14) or better known as “El Chicharito” is the team's creative, his ability to control the ball and generate plays have been of great value to his team. He was the author of a goal in the previous match, in 15 games played he has achieved 6 goals and an assist, this makes him the highest scorer and the fourth highest assister of the team. Forward Samuel Grandsir (#11) is another game distributor on the floor that is of the utmost importance, he is the team's biggest assister, he has generated 3 assists in 8 games as a starter and 7 coming off the bench. Lastly, 22-year-old striker Dejan Joveljic (#99) is the team's second-highest scorer with 4 goals in 12 games coming off the bench. They leave at his young age he has achieved a lot in the team, he is a very important substitute who wants to be able to start in the team and it is very likely that we will see him scoring in the game.

The Los Angeles team has had a great tournament so far in the MLS, after 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses they have 24 points in the general table that puts them in sixth position in the Western Conference. They've had an amazing start to the season, hopefully they can keep up the same pace throughout the tournament and advance to the postseason. Their last game was on June 18, 2022 and resulted in a 1-1 draw against the Portland Timbers at Dignity Health Sports Park for their third straight game without losing. They arrive as favorites to win this game and stay with the victory because of the incredible team they have and the good time they are going through.

Dignity Health Sports Park is located in the city of Carson, California and is known as the largest capacity soccer stadium in the United States. It will be the venue for this match, it has a capacity of 27,000 spectators, it was inaugurated on June 7, 2003 and it is the home of the Los Angeles Galaxy.
