The Galaxy are hoping their second match goes better than their first.

Neither team particularly enjoyed the way their seasons ended a year ago, and are eager to get this started on the right foot this season. So far that plan is going well for Portland, who won their first match of the season against Minnesota United quite handily to create a strong start that they hope can help carry them through a tough opening stretch of their schedule.
The Galaxy didn’t enjoy their first match nearly as much, losing 2-1 to FC Dallas at home in a tough match that just never really saw them get enough breaks to sustain any in-match momentum. The Timbers look like a similarly tough matchup for them to deal with, and this match in particular will be a big test of just how strong a team the Galaxy are now in the post-Bruce Arena era.
