Los Angeles FC (16-7-8, 56 points) hosts Toronto FC (5-14-13, 29 points) tonight at BMO Stadium, with both teams entering on opposite ends of the MLS spectrum.
LAFC has already clinched a postseason berth but continues to chase a top-three finish in the Western Conference. They sit two points behind Minnesota, and a win tonight would strengthen their seeding as the regular season nears its close. The Black and Gold have been nearly unbeatable at home, boasting a 10-4-2 record.
Toronto, meanwhile, has endured another disappointing campaign, sitting 12th in the Eastern Conference and long eliminated from playoff contention.
LAFC’s attack continues to run through Denis Bouanga, who has 23 goals this season, just one shy of Lionel Messi’s 24 in the Golden Boot race.
Bouanga earned MLS Player of the Month for September after recording eight goals and two hat tricks, while Heung-Min Son and Timothy Tillman provide additional firepower on the wings and through the middle.
Prediction
LAFC’s home dominance and attacking cohesion should be too much for Toronto. Expect Bouanga and Tillman to test Toronto’s back line early, while Heung-Min Son’s pace and creativity should stretch play wide. Toronto may find a goal through Djordje Mihailović, but LAFC’s depth should comfortably carry them through.
Predicted Score: LAFC 3, Toronto FC 1
