US viewers can watch it live on FOX Network, MLS Season Pass, fuboTV, FOX Deportes, Fox Sports.com, FOX Sports App, and FOX One.
It’s clear that Los Angeles FC has a Son who is lacking goals at the moment. We’ll see whether he can find his scoring touch against Minnesota United FC, but there’s no doubt this is a match no one will want to miss.
These are two title contenders who have started the season in excellent form, and neither side will back down.
Minnesota has found a strong attacking rhythm along with a solid defense, something they had been missing in recent years.
However, Son Heung-min is expected to bounce back and likely break his drought, helping LAFC get even closer to the top of the Western Conference.
Prediction: Minnesota United 1-3 LAFC
