The LA Galaxy have had two weeks off to rest and recuperate, aside from a handful of internationals out with their national teams, and on Saturday they get back in action in MLS when they host the Portland Timbers at Dignity Health Sports Park.
Before the break, the Galaxy most recently downed Austin FC 4-1 at home. It wasn’t really a romp until the end, after Austin took the lead and Dejan Joveljiu0107 came off the bench and had a hand in all four goals for LA to flip the result. It was his best argument yet that he deserves more playing time, and it will be interesting to see how Greg Vanney chooses to use him moving forward.
