Facing Giants: Getting Mentally Ready for LAFC

This Saturday our beloved Orlando City Lions will take on the West Coast giants, LAFC. The California club currently sits at the top of the Western Conference table with 19 wins and 62 points — who are we kidding, LAFC sits at the top of the table of the Eastern and Western conferences combined. The Lions head into this match having nine wins, seven (mostly) painful draws and 34 points.

This match was never going to be easy, but to add insult to injury, the international break will cost Orlando City the services of Carlos Ascues (Peru), Sebas Méndez (Ecuador), and Canadians Tesho Akindele, Will Johnson, and Kamal Miller.
