Los Angeles Galaxy – the shape of the team and its analysis:
The "Galacticos" were at the bottom last season: 13th in the West, 26th overall in the league. However, in North American sports, fortunes can turn around quickly, as demonstrated by the Californian team this season.
Greg Vanney's team started the season with a six-game unbeaten streak. This was followed by two losses and two wins. From May onwards, the club consistently picked up points, with their streak interrupted only by a loss to Chicago Fire away.
Sporting Kansas City – the shape of the team and its analysis:
The "Wizards" present a contrasting example. Last season, they faced some struggles but finished eighth in the West, eventually being eliminated in the conference semifinals.
Currently, their chances of making the playoffs are slim. They continue to compete in the U.S. Open Cup and started the MLS season well, losing only twice in the first nine rounds. However, they then suffered a setback with seven consecutive losses. They managed to stage a comeback in their last game, securing a 2-1 win over Seattle Sounders with a numerical advantage.
