Los Angeles FC
Los Angeles FC have shown mixed form in their recent matches, with their last six games resulting in two wins, two draws, and two losses. Notably, the team is currently experiencing a two-match losing streak, having fallen to ES Tunis and Chelsea in the FIFA Club World Cup. Despite this recent dip, LAFC have been involved in some high-scoring encounters, with four of their last six matches seeing over 2.5 goals. The team's attacking prowess is evident, having scored in each of their last six games, but their defence has been less than stellar, failing to keep a clean sheet during this period. Their goal difference of zero over the last six matches, along with both teams scoring in 67% of these games, suggests that LAFC have been involved in closely contested, entertaining fixtures. Currently sitting 5th in the league table with 26 points from 16 games, LAFC will be looking to improve their defensive record and regain their winning form in upcoming matches.

However, their defence has been relatively solid, conceding only five goals and keeping three clean sheets. Interestingly, 83% of these home games have seen under 2.5 goals, suggesting a trend towards low-scoring affairs. The most notable result in this run was a 3-2 defeat to Vancouver Whitecaps, which stands out as the highest-scoring game and the only match where both teams scored. Despite their mixed form at home, Real Salt Lake have managed to maintain a positive goal difference, albeit by a slim margin of one.
Los Angeles FC
Los Angeles FC have struggled to find their winning form away from home, with their last six away matches resulting in four draws and two losses. The team's inability to secure a victory in this stretch is noteworthy, as is their tendency to engage in high-scoring affairs, with five out of the six matches seeing over 2.5 goals. LAFC have been involved in some particularly goal-laden encounters, including a 3-3 draw with Portland Timbers and a 3-1 loss to Inter Miami. Despite their attacking prowess, averaging 1.67 goals per game, their defence has been leaky, conceding 2.33 goals per match on average. The team's propensity for draws is evident, with four consecutive stalemates before their most recent loss to Chelsea in the FIFA Club World Cup. Interestingly, both teams have scored in 83% of these matches, highlighting LAFC's entertaining but potentially vulnerable style of play away from home.
