LA Galaxy vs. NYCFC

While New York holds a narrow 430 advantage in the alltime series, the Galaxy enter the match having won the past two meetings, including a 2-0 victory on June 19, 2024. LA also owns a 320 home record against NYCFC, highlighted by a decisive 5-1 win in the inaugural matchup in 2015.
