The league’s best road team takes on its poorest home side. Toronto FC’s 23 points on their travels so far this season put them six ahead of the rest of the league (though three of the teams on 17 have a game in hand) and is more than double the amount the LA Galaxy have collected at the StubHub Center.
Both teams will be missing key players for their first meeting of the campaign. Toronto have left Sebastian Giovinco and Jozy Altidore at home to rest, while LA’s Romain Alessandrini and Jermaine Jones are suspended.
