Two clubs in the Western Conference of MLS will do battle today in a league match between the Montreal Impact and Los Angeles Galaxy. The first-division clash scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET will be held at Saputo Stadium in Montreal and can be live streamed here. Additional TV coverage can be found on TSN.
Los Angeles Galaxy defender Omar Gonzalez had this to offer ahead of today's league encounter (via MLS's official website): "Right now everything is clicking. The ball movements are fantastic, the forwards are getting around and scoring goals. Gyasi [Zardes] has been unbelievable. [Alan] Gordon has been a great acquisition for us. Everyone is just firing on all cylinders. Juninho, Marcelo [Sarvas] are great in the midfield winning tons of balls; not allowing teams to counter us and protecting the back line."
"All around, guys coming off the bench as well, so it's been great," he added. "It's been fun and we just have to keep it going."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Montreal's Marco Di Vaio is among the club's leaders in goals scored. In 14 starts this season, the 38-year-old has five goals, three assists and nearly an average of one key pass per match.
Montreal Impact's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Perkins; Ouimette, Lefevre, Pearce, Camara; Farran, Bernier, Larrea, Mapp; Vaio, McInerney
