LOS ANGELES GALAXY vs. REAL SALT LAKE Live Stream Online: 2014 MLS Standings, Live Coverage From Los Angeles, Projected Lineups and TACTICAL PREVIEW

Two clubs in the Western Conference of MLS will do battle today in a league match between the the Los Angeles Galaxy and Real Salt Lake. The first-division clash scheduled for 5 p.m. ET will be held at the StubHub Center in Los Angeles and can be live streamed here.

The Galaxy return to league play to face a familiar foe. In the 2013 Western Conference semifinals, Los Angeles was eliminated by Real Salt Lake in a home-and-away series. Ironically, that's exactly how the Galaxy will start 2014. A visit from the Claret and Cobalt will be the fourth consecutive time the two sides meet, much to the dismay of head coach Bruce Arena (h/t to Scott French on MLS's official website). "We've tried to make it clear to the league that we thought this was not the way to do it, but they have their own minds," Arena said following LA's training session Thursday morning at StubHub Center.

"We're going to be the only team in the league doing this on three occasions this year," he added.

"I don't think it's good."

What wasn't good was the 1-0 loss the Galaxy suffered in Week 1. Will they be able to exact revenge at home? Tell us @SportsWN

Tactical Preview

Player to Watch: Real Salt Lake's Joao Plata stunned the Galaxy in their first meeting back in Week 1. The 80' goal is what propelled the Claret and Cobalt to victory. He'll look to add another to his resume at the StubHub Center this evening.

Los Angeles Galaxy's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Penedo; Riley, Leonardo, González, DeLaGarza; Donovan, Sarvas, Juninho, Zardes; Keane, Friend

Real Salt Lake's Projected Lineup (4-1-2-1-2): Rimando; Wingert, Maund, Borchers, Beltran; Beckerman, Grabavoy, Gil, Morales; Plata, Saborio
