You have to be aware of three players. The first is midfielder Hany Mukhtar (#10), who is the team's leading scorer with 21 goals so far in the tournament, has scored in Nashville's last 2 games and isn't about to stop. Another player is C.J. Sapong (#17), plays the forward position, has 5 goals and 5 assists in 29 games played and is a key man in case the game gets too close. Last game against FC Dallas he assisted a goal and is a fundamental piece to generate dangerous plays for Nashville. Finally, Randall Leal (#8) with 5 assists is recognized as the team's assister and is expected to appear a lot in the match. All three players are considered key to Nashville's offensive attack and will be of paramount importance if the LA Galaxy are to win.
Nashville, after 12 wins, 9 draws and 9 losses, have 45 points, which establishes them in fourth place in the West. Their last game was against Austin FC, where Nashville took all three points with a 3-0 win at GEODIS Park. Nashville's objective for this game is to be able to stay with the victory and in this way get closer to the third place in the west that is FC Dallas, 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 the LA Galaxy's offensive attack and any one of them is likely to score in the game against Nashville SC. Mexican player Javier Hernández (#14) or better known as “El Chicharito” is the team's creative, his ability to control the ball and generate plays have been of great value to his team. He scored two goals in the last game, in 26 games played he has got 14 goals and three assists, this makes him the highest scorer and the third highest assister of the team. Forward Samuel Grandsir (#11) is another important on-court distributor, he is the team's biggest assister, he has generated 3 assists in 15 games as a starter and 12 coming off the bench. Lastly, 22-year-old forward Dejan Joveljic (#99) is the team's second-highest scorer with 10 goals in 26 games coming off the bench. They leave at his young age he has achieved a lot in the team, he is a very important substitute who wants to be a starter in the team and it is very likely that we will see him scoring in the game.
The Los Angeles team has had a great tournament so far in the MLS, after 11 wins, 6 draws and 11 losses, they have 39 points in the general table that puts them in eighth position in the Western Conference. They have had an amazing start to the season, hopefully they can keep up the same pace throughout the tournament and advance to the postseason. Their last game was on September 4, 2022 and resulted in a 2-2 draw against Sporting Kansas City at Dignity Health Sports Park for their 11th victory. 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. They have an advantage in the game by playing at home and having their fans root for them.
