Latest football review St Louis City vs LA Galaxy

Dropping points has become a specialty for St Louis this season, and that continued last weekend against the Timbers.

It was the fifth time in the 2025 regular season that they had opened the scoring but failed to win, dropping a total of 13 points from such situations.

Nine of their 14 points so far this year have come at home to Energizer Park, including their most recent game – which was also David Critchley's debut in charge.

This Saturday is their chance to make it back-to-back home wins in the league, something they haven't done since their final two wins of last season.

St Louis City are also unbeaten in their last 11 league games where they have scored two or more goals, including four times this season.

This Saturday will be their sixth meeting with LA Galaxy, and St Louis remain unbeaten against them, including a 2-1 home win last year.

The seemingly elusive victory finally came for LA Galaxy in their latest domestic match.

With that, the reigning MLS Cup champions kept their first clean sheet in the regular season since last August (2-0 win over Atlanta United).

Greg Vanney's side still have a long way to go if they want to get back into the play-off race, currently 15 points behind the Western Conference play-off group.

The next step for them is to find an away win – something they have failed to do in their last six away games in the regular season.

Since the beginning of the season, Galaxy have failed to win in 3/4 matches in which they opened the scoring in this tournament, dropping a total of 8 points.

The last time they won a regular-season away game against a Western opponent was in October 2024 (3-1 win over Colorado Rapids).
