LAFC without Bouanga seeks to compensate for absence with attacking options

The Los Angeles FC coach does not have Denis Bouanga, the top scorer in the club’s history. The attacker is suspended for one match. The team must maintain a 4-3-3 or 3-4-3 formation, with Hugo Lloris in goal.

• Aaron Long, Nkosi Tafari and Eddie Segura form the defense
• Ryan Hollingshead, Timothy Tillman and Stephen Eustaquio in the middle
• David Martínez, Nathan Ordaz and possibly Son Heung-min or Jacob Shaffelburg in the attack

The absence of Bouanga leaves room for adjustments. Son, with good recent performance, can act more open or centralized. The Californian team beat Cruz Azul in the quarterfinals with an aggregate score of 4-1.

BMO Stadium should receive good attendance. LAFC has a solid record at home this season. The fans hope that the field command will make a difference in the search for a place in the decision.
