The biggest match in MLS arrives on Saturday night when LAFC and the Los Angeles Galaxy meet in El Traffico at the MLS is Back Tournament in Orlando. Both teams failed to win their opening match of the group stage, and that means the pressure is on here to receive three points or potentially face an early exit from the competition. LAFC tied the Houston Dynamo 3-3 in their wild opener, while the Galaxy fell 2-1 against the Portland Timbers.

Here’s how you’ll watch the match and what to realize:

LAFC: Bob Bradley’s club is without league MVP Carlos Vela, who made up our minds not to play in the tournament as a precaution. So who will step up? Maybe Uruguayan talent Brian Rodriguez, who in spite of everything scored his first goal for the club in the opener. With Diego Rossi in attack and Bradley Wright-Phillips, LAFC has more than enough in the last third to receive a win here.

LA Galaxy: This team will go so far as its defense takes it, but the club needs more from Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez in attack. The former Manchester United and Real Madrid man scored his first goal for the club final time out, but he also missed a penalty kick. Expect him to stay as centrally as conceivable and look to build on his connection with Cristian Pavon.

LAFC vs. LA Galaxy prediction

The Galaxy pull out the win, thanks to a late goal from Pavon. Pick: Galaxy 2, LAFC 1
