You have to be aware of three players. The first is midfielder Lewis Morgan (#10), who is the team's top scorer with 7 goals so far in the tournament, he scored last game and is not going to stop. Another player is Luquinhas (#82), he plays the midfield position, he has 5 goals in 14 games played and he is a key man in case the game gets too close. He has two consecutive games scoring a goal and is a fundamental piece to generate dangerous plays for New York. Finally, Patryk Klimala (#9) with 3 assists is recognized as the team's assistant and is expected to feature heavily in the match. All three players are considered key to the Red Bulls' offensive attack and will be of paramount importance if New York is to win.
New York, after 7 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses, have 26 points, which establishes them in the third position in the East. Their last game was against New York City, where the Red Bulls took all three points by winning 3-0 and playing with only 10 men on the field. New York's objective for this game is to be able to stay with the victory and thus steal first place from Orlando City, it will be a complicated game but not impossible to win. They arrive as the least favorites to win this game, however they could surprise and win.
The next three players are considered key to LAFC's offensive attack and any one of them is likely to score in the game against the New York Red Bulls. Mexican player Carlos Vela (#10) is the team's creative, his ability to control the ball and generate plays have been of great value to his team. He is the leader of the team, in 14 games played he has achieved 6 goals and 2 assists, this makes him the highest scorer and the second highest assistant of the team. Midfielder José Cifuentes (#11) is another game distributor on the pitch that is of the utmost importance, he is the team's biggest assistant, he has generated 3 goals and 3 assists. Lastly, 31-year-old defender Ryan Hollingshead (#24) who is the team's second-highest scorer with 4 goals in 12 games played. He will add a lot to LAFC's attack from set pieces and he's also a great defender.
The Los Angeles team is at the top of the tournament, after 9 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses, they have 30 points in the general table that puts them in first position in the Western Conference. They've had an amazing start to the season, hopefully they can keep up the same pace throughout the tournament and advance to the postseason. The novelty of the team is the arrival of Welsh striker Gareth Bale to the team, his arrival to the team was announced on Saturday and his experience could favor the LAFC forward. Their last game resulted in a 1-1 draw against Seattle Sounders FC at Lumen Field and thus they maintained their first place in the general table. They arrive as favorites to win this game and stay with the victory because of the incredible team they have and the good time they are going through.
