LA Galaxy vs. Sounders, live stream: kickoff, lineups, updates

The Seattle Sounders can earn the right to host the MLS Cup by beating the LA Galaxy in the Western Conference final today. It won’t be an easy task. The Galaxy successfully navigated the first two rounds of the playoffs, winning their three games with a combined score of 15-3. They are also 16-0-4 in all competitions at Dignity Health Sports Park this season.

To make the task even more difficult, the Sounders will be slightly shorthanded with Paul Rothrock out for the season and Yeimar Gomez-Andrade being questionable for this game. However, Nouhou appears to be back after missing the previous game.

The Galaxy is pretty much at full strength.

• This is the fifth time the Sounders have faced the Galaxy in the MLS playoffs, but the first time since 2015. It is also the third time they have played in the conference finals. The Sounders have only won one of the four meetings so far.
• Jordan Morris’s goal against LAFC was his ninth career playoff goal, tying him with teammate Raúl Ruidíaz for the most among active players.
• This will be the fourth time the Sounders have played the Galaxy in all competitions this year. The Sounders are 1-1-1.
• Since joining MLS in 2009, the Sounders have now reached the conference finals seven times. Only five teams have achieved this much more time.
