Los Angeles FC has had a strong start to its championship defence, winning three and drawing two of its first five games. The Black and Gold will be looking to bridge the gap by defeating a team it thrashed 3-0 at home in the playoff semi-final back in October. The Black and Gold is four points behind league leaders St Louis City with a game in hand.

Since its founding in 2018, Austin FC has not experienced the same level of success as its rivals; however, the past season was a significant improvement as it finished second in the Western Conference.

The Verde and Black has a lot of work to do if it is to close the gap this season, and it has had a bad start, as Josh Wolff's team has garnered only seven points after five games.
