LAFC was consistently among the top three favorites to win this MLS season in preseason betting odds. The team, brimming with talent and stars, enters the final stretch of the season in sixth place, desperately needing a strong finish to secure a playoff berth. However, draws have become worryingly commonplace for them, and victories have remained elusive.
LAFC could only manage a draw against the Vancouver Whitecaps in their last match; it felt like a missed opportunity, as Blackmon's expulsion left the Canadian side with ten men as early as the 6th minute. LAFC went into halftime trailing, and a goal from Bouanga salvaged their eighth draw in the last two months across all competitions.
Fortunately for LAFC, they will face Austin FC; the Texas team has had a disappointing season and is coming off a 1-4 home loss to Nashville in a match where they were completely outplayed. Vázquez scored a consolation goal for a team that has already conceded more than 50 goals in 28 games this season.
