LAFC and Houston Dynamo will vie for the Western Conference final in the MLS this weekend at the BMO Stadium, which will grant the ticket to the MLS Cup, a stage that the Black & Gold ensemble hopes to reach for the second consecutive year, aiming to defend their title. This Saturday’s clash promises plenty of excitement, as the two best teams in the West face off, demonstrating throughout these playoffs that they have what it takes to be considered serious contenders for the title.
Western Conference final is set
One of the advantages that LAFC holds for this Conference final is, as we’ve highlighted, that Steve Cherundolo’s team will play at home, cheered on by their supporters. Undoubtedly, having this backing against a formidable Houston Dynamo team hungry for titles and dreaming of a double is a significant asset.
The strength of LAFC will seek to make its presence felt once again, as it has done throughout the current season, achieving a regular-season record of 10 victories, four draws, and only three defeats while playing at the BMO Stadium.

The team led by Denis Bouanga and Carlos Vela aspires to achieve a back-to-back championship, but know that, if they progress, they will not play the final at home.
