After a much-needed bye week, the LA Galaxy are back in action for the homestretch of the 2021 MLS regular season, when they host the Portland Timbers at Dignity Health Sports Park on Saturday.
LA are now on a nine-game winless streak, but their last result was a 1-1 El Trafico draw before the break, so perhaps that can give them some positive momentum heading into the final six games of the regular season. That’s the hope, anyway.
The Timbers enter this game in opposite form, unbeaten in eight and with seven wins in that stretch.
