I know I’m getting repetitive, but we are here to present a new MLS matchday, where many teams try to shorten their way into the playoff race. On the other hand, the last thing we are going to watch from US clubs is the Leagues Cup, because every team has been eliminated.
Still, let’s not be sad; we can still watch our best players every week and weekend. Now, we join one of the most interesting matches of the night: D.C. United against LAFC.

With that being said, join us for this D.C. United vs. LAFC preview. In this article, we will discuss the latest news, provide information on how to watch the game, and present the predicted formation.

Score Prediction:
I know everyone will see the last five outcomes from both teams, and the results will show you that D.C. United has the upper hand, but that can’t be further from the truth.
LAFC is one of the biggest contenders for the MLS Cup, and a rough patch during the Leagues Cup won’t change that. With Heung-Min Son and Bouanga on the offense and a solid defensive line, the Black and Gold wouldn’t see much of a struggle to win the encounter.
Score Prediction: D.C. United 0-2 LAFC
