New York Red Bulls vs LA Galaxy Prediction and Betting Tips | May 10th 2025
New York Red Bulls will host LA Galaxy at the Sports Illustrated Stadium on Saturday in another round of the 2025 Major League Soccer campaign. The home side have had a mixed start to their league season and now sit 10th in the Eastern Conference with 15 points from 11 matches.
They suffered a 4-1 hiding at the hands of Inter Miami in their last league outing but returned to winning ways during the week as they beat USL Championship side Switchbacks 4-1 in the last 32 of the US Open Cup.
LA Galaxy, meanwhile, have endured a disastrous start to their season with questions now being asked of head coach Greg Vanney. They were beaten 1-0 by Sporting Kansas City in their last match, falling to a Maya Yoshida own goal in the 13th minute as the Wizards became the first team in MLS history to win a game without a single shot attempt.
The defending champions now sit rock-bottom in the combined table with just three points from an obtainable 33 and will be desperate to pick up their first win of the league season this weekend.
