Recent form
New York Red Bulls
The New York Red Bulls have been experiencing a mixed run of form, with their recent results showing a pattern of inconsistency. Currently sitting 10th in the league table with 15 points from 11 games, the Red Bulls have struggled to maintain a winning streak, alternating between wins, losses, and a draw in their last six matches. Their most recent outing resulted in a heavy 4-1 defeat against Inter Miami, which stands out as the highest-scoring game in this period. Defensively, the Red Bulls have been somewhat porous, conceding an average of 1.5 goals per game, while their attacking output has been modest at just one goal per game. Interestingly, 67% of their matches have seen both teams score, and the same percentage have produced over 2.5 goals, suggesting their games tend to be fairly open affairs. Despite these challenges, the Red Bulls have managed to keep two clean sheets in their last six matches, offering a glimmer of defensive resilience.
LA Galaxy
LA Galaxy are currently experiencing a poor run of form, finding themselves in 15th position in the league with just 3 points from 11 games. The team are on a concerning five-match losing streak across all competitions, with their last positive result being a 1-1 draw against Houston Dynamo. Their defensive frailties are evident, having conceded 12 goals in their last six matches and failing to keep a clean sheet in that period. Particularly worrying for Galaxy fans is the high-scoring 4-2 defeat at home to Portland Timbers, which highlights their defensive vulnerabilities. The team's attacking output has also been lacklustre, averaging less than a goal per game in their last six matches. With 10 games without a win and six without a clean sheet, LA Galaxy are in desperate need of a turnaround to salvage their season.

Recent home/away form
New York Red Bulls
The New York Red Bulls have shown impressive form at home, winning four of their last six matches at the Red Bull Arena. They are currently on a three-match winning streak at home, demonstrating their strength on their own turf. The Red Bulls have been consistently finding the back of the net, scoring in all six of their recent home games and averaging 1.67 goals per match. Defensively, they've been relatively solid, conceding only one goal per game on average and keeping two clean sheets. Interestingly, 67% of their home matches have seen both teams score, and the same percentage have featured over 2.5 goals, suggesting that fans are often treated to entertaining, high-scoring affairs. Despite their strong home form, the Red Bulls' overall league position (10th) indicates they may be struggling more in away fixtures.
LA Galaxy
LA Galaxy's recent away form has been a cause for concern, with the team currently on a four-match losing streak on the road. The Galaxy have failed to secure a victory in their last six away fixtures, managing only two draws in that period. Their goal-scoring prowess has been notably lacking, with the team averaging less than a goal per game (0.83) whilst conceding an average of 1.67 goals per match. Defensively, the Galaxy have struggled to keep clean sheets, failing to do so in any of their recent away encounters. The most high-scoring game during this run was their 3-2 defeat to Tigres UANL in the CONCACAF Champions League, which also marked their closest attempt at avoiding defeat. Despite 50% of their matches seeing both teams score, the Galaxy have been involved in predominantly low-scoring affairs, with 67% of their games featuring fewer than 2.5 goals.
