LAFC faces back-to-back contests against Real Salt Lake this week, beginning on Wednesday, Sept. 17 when the Black & Gold travels to Sandy, UT.

International football icon Son Heung-Min and three-time MLS All-Star Denis Bouanga form one of the most dangerous attacks in MLS, with Bouanga nearing a pair of impressive club and league milestones:

Bouanga has 93 goals in all competitions for LAFC after scoring a hat trick against San Jose on Sept. 13. He is now tied with Black & Gold legend Carlos Vela for the most goals in club history.

Bouanga is two goals away from becoming the first player in MLS history to score 20 regular-season goals in three consecutive seasons. With the MLS Cup Playoffs fast approaching, LAFC enters the match in fifth place in the Western Conference after a 4-2 win over San Jose on Sept. 13. Real Salt Lake is fighting for a playoff spot and currently sits tenth in the table, just one point outside the final playoff qualifying position.

LAFC is 11W-3L-1D all-time against RSL in MLS play.

Wednesday's game against RSL will re-air locally in Los Angeles on Friday, Sept. 19, at 10 p.m. on FOX 11 Plus (KCOP-TV Ch. 13), where fans can also watch LAFC Weekly, a 30-minute magazine show that gives viewers an in-depth look at the Black & Gold.
