FC Dallas vs Los Angeles Galaxy Prediction & Betting Tips (14 July)

Exited in the first round of the play-offs last year, FC Dallas may well not even be able to leave its Conference this year. Because two thirds of the way through the regular season, this Texan franchise is only in 11th position in the West, with a delay of 7 units on the last qualifying place for these play-offs. Even more annoying, the Red Stripes are no longer moving forward and they even remain on a very worrying series of 4 defeats suffered in their last 5 meetings. While they were able to just win against the Portland Timbers 2-1, the Cowboys fell directly against Sporting Kansas City 3-2 then they were knocked out of the Cup by the same Sporting KC 2-1 AP on Wednesday evening For its part, the LA Galaxy is well established at the top of the rankings in the West. The Californian franchise is in 3rd place in the ranking, tied on points with the leader which is none other than its neighbor, LAFC.

On the other hand, she played 2 more matches than most of her competitors for 1st place. In full swing, Martin Caceres' partners have won 5 times over the last 6 days. Beaten in the Los Angeles derby last weekend 1-2, they recovered against Minnesota United 2-1.

Suspended on the last day, senior defender Ibeagha will be operational again. On the other hand, long-term absentees Geovane Jesus, Paxton Pomykal and Alan Velasco are still on the sidelines. This is also the case of the important Patrickson Delgado, the valuable Liam Fraser and the relatively prolific striker Jesus Ferreira (4 goals). Up front, we should undoubtedly find Croatian striker Musa who has scored 11 goals since the start of the regular season and who remains on 2 goals scored in his last 2 matches. For the Galaxy, midfielder Brugman will be at a priori the only element to be missing.

We should therefore find, in the starting 11, the veteran Japanese defender Yoshida and the very experienced Martin Caceres (ex Juve). In midfield, former Barcelona nugget Riqui Puig shines with 6 goals and 5 assists while Serbian striker Joveljic is the team's top scorer with 12 goals. We also follow the performances of Brazilian striker Gabriel Pec (9 goals, 7 assists) and Ghanaian Paintsil (6 goals, 4 assists).
