The Galaxy became unglued last weekend, and although Vanney is an experienced coach who should be a calming presence, if things do not go their way in this one, there is no telling what they may do.
Nothing appears to be bothering LAFC right now, and even with a match played on Tuesday, they have so many weapons up and down this roster that we expect to see them to claim their first victory at Dignity Health Sports Park on Sunday.
