Los Angeles FC

The team is the leader of the Western Conference. In 19 matches this season, they have accumulated 37 points, sharing the top spot with two other Western teams. Thus, three teams in the West have 37 points each. Los Angeles boasts a formidable attack, averaging at least two goals per match, with 38 goals in 19 games—only one team has scored more. Additionally, Los Angeles has the best defense in the Western Conference, conceding 23 goals in regular season matches. These are the main factors contributing to Los Angeles's high standing.

Overall, this team has dominated the MLS in recent years, reaching the playoff finals in the past two seasons. In 2022, they won 4-3, and last year they lost 1-2. Recently, Los Angeles has been in excellent form, with four wins and one draw in their last five matches. Furthermore, they have not lost since May 5, 2024, remaining unbeaten in ten subsequent matches.

Colorado Rapids

This team is also in the Western Conference and currently ranks high in the standings. Colorado has amassed 31 points from 20 matches, with a slim two-point lead over their nearest competitor. It's worth noting that Minnesota, which is one place below, has a game in hand, so the Rapids could drop to fifth place. The gap to the top three teams is six points. Colorado has one of the best attacks in the West, with 38 goals, the second-best in the conference. However, their defense is less reliable, having conceded 32 goals, the fourth-worst in the Western Conference.

Colorado's recent form is quite good, with three consecutive wins, although they suffered two straight losses before that. It's important to mention that the Rapids have clearly worked on their defense, conceding only one goal in their last three matches, whereas in the four matches prior, they conceded 13 times. They have evidently made significant adjustments.
