The Whitecaps saw their unbeaten start to the season end in a cruel manner last weekend as they were outclassed at the Mercedez-Benz Arena by Atlanta United 4-1, however, they should not allow that dampened their spirit after winning their first two games of the season, and they should be targeting another win in this game.<\/p>\n
Although they beat both Houston Dynamos and Montreal Impact before their loss to Atlanta, there seem to be some defensive issues that need to be sorted out as they have failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their games this season, conceding 6 goals in 3 matches, while netting 5.<\/p>\n
LA Galaxy made a statement with the capture of Zlatan Ibrahimovic this week, while the Swede would not be ready for action yet for this game, that would have boosted their team’s morale.<\/p>\n
The Galaxies had a shocking season the last time out as they failed to deal with the loss of some key players to injuries and transfers, finishing the season as rock-bottom.\u00a0 They started the season with a 2-1 win over Portland Timbers but failed to follow that up with another win as they lost to NYCFC.<\/p>\n
They are faced with yet more injury concerns as they chase their second win of the season, with Alessandrini, Jonathan Dos Santos, and Giovani Dos Santos all out of this game with injuries.<\/p>\n
