Los Angeles team news and form: Giroud on the bench
World Cup winner Giroud was benched in the game against Flamengo a few days ago, and we believe coach Cheurndolo will deprive him of minutes versus the Whitecaps as well. Bouanga will be the one to lead the attack.
Predicted lineup: Lloris (GK), Long, Marlon, Segura, Palencia, Jesus, Delgado, Hollingshead, Bouanga, Dilrosun & Martinez

Vancouver Whitecaps team news and form: Whitecaps fun to watch
Despite Ryan Gauld’s injury status, the Whitecaps did manage to score three goals against San Diego a few days ago. The bad news is that goalkeeper-in-chief Takaoka conceded five in return, as Milan Iloski stole the show with a four-goal masterclass display.
Predicted lineup: Takaoka (GK), Ocampo, Blackmon, Veselinovic, Johnson, Priso, Badwal, Cubas, Sabbi, Vite & Rios

Player to watch: Denis Bouanga
We’d like to give Gabonese winger Bouanga a shout-out in our Los Angeles vs Vancouver Whitecaps prediction, as he scored the only goal for his team during the FIFA Club World Cup. It proved to be an essential one, as it earned LAFC their only tournament point.
Bouanga looking to bounce back
Sure, Bouanga has eight goals to his name thus far and is the leading goalscorer for his team, but those aren’t great numbers for him, in comparison to previous seasons. We can’t wait to see how he will do against the Whitecaps’ packed backline.
