The 2025 edition of MLS is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Minnesota United lock horns with an impressive Los Angeles Galaxy side in an important encounter at the Allianz Field on Saturday. Both teams can pack a punch on their day and will want to win this game.

Minnesota United, on the other hand, are in fifth place in the league table and have stepped up to the plate this season. The hosts played out a 3-3 draw against Sporting Kansas City in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.
