With the Galaxy and the Dynamo picking up wins in the U.S. Open Cup, both teams will be looking to keep their momentum going heading into the midway point of the season. While the Dynamo have only won two of their last five games, the team remains third in the MLS Western Conference standings. The Galaxy however, have not fared as well. Despite not having lost a game since late April, the team remains eighth in the west.
The Galaxy will look to pickup a win to dig themselves out of the hole they dug early on in the season.
