- 洛杉矶银河队在开场16场比赛中仅拿下4分后，仍在寻找本赛季的第一场MLS胜利
- 皇家盐湖城队也在西部联盟垫底，但比洛杉矶队多拿了11分
- 银河队本赛季丢了联盟最高的36个球
洛杉矶队看起来将迎来另一场令人沮丧的比赛
令人震惊的是，美国职业足球大联盟卫冕冠军洛杉矶银河队在以2比1战胜纽约红牛队仅六个月后，在16场比赛后支持了西部联盟。
银河队在前16场比赛中只拿了区区4分，足以让他们成为美国职业足球大联盟中最差的球队，而且他们的卫冕似乎将在季后赛开始之前就结束了。
这场比赛的第一场联赛胜利尚未到来，没有一支MLS球队的失球数超过他们的36个，他们在所有比赛中输掉了最后8场比赛中的7场，这就是为什么看到他们成为与皇家盐湖城队这场比赛最受欢迎的球队的原因。
真正的盐湖城可能会在加州获得一分
公平地说，盐湖城自己并没有砍伐任何树木，但他们本赛季比洛杉矶多拿了11分，可以避免在加州失利。
以这样的价格，支持皇马以获得全部三分可能很诱人，但他们在六场比赛中都没有获胜，平局更具吸引力。
盐湖城队最近五场比赛中的三场和洛杉矶队在加利福尼亚州的最后五场比赛的三场都达到了水平，而两人在尊严健康体育公园的最后三场比赛也分享了战利品。
- LA Galaxy are still searching for a first MLS win of the season after taking just four points from their opening 16 games
- Real Salt Lake are also towards the bottom of the Western Conference but have earned 11 more points than LA
- Galaxy have conceded a league-high 36 goals this term
Luckless LA look set for another frustrating fixture
In a shocking turn of events, the reigning MLS champions, LA Galaxy, only six months on from their 2-1 triumph over New York Red Bulls, are propping up Western Conference after 16 games.
The Galaxy have taken a measly four points from their opening 16 matches, enough to make them the worst team in the MLS by some distance, and their title defence looks set to end well before the playoffs even begin.
A first league win of the campaign is still yet to arrive, no MLS side has conceded more goals than their 36 and they have lost seven of their last eight matches in all competitions, which is why it is surprising to see them as favourites for this clash with Real Salt Lake.
Real Salt Lake likely to earn a point in California
Salt Lake have not been tearing up any trees themselves, in fairness, but they have taken 11 more points than LA this term and can avoid defeat in California.
At the prices, it could be tempting to back Real to secure all three points, but they are without a win in six games and the draws makes more appeal.
Three of Salt Lake’s last five matches and three of LA’s last five in California finished level, while the pair’s last three meetings at Dignity Health Sports Park also saw the spoils shared.
