LA Galaxy vs Orlando City Prediction

LA Galaxy kicked off the season at home with a 1-0 win against reigning champions New York City FC. They won 1-0 in their trip to Charlotte and came up just short of securing a point against the Seattle Sounders with a 3-2 loss.

The visiting side also boast a goal difference of +1 but are expected to struggle after making a 2500-mile trip to the West coast. They are without a win at Saturday's venue but have kept two clean sheets in three games, so they will likely be happy with a draw here.

With the home support behind them, it is expected that the Galaxy will come out on top here.
