Nkosi Tafari - Six interceptions at back Tafari recorded five shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Real Salt Lake.

Impact Tafari started in the right center-back role of manager Marc Dos Santos' experimental three-man back line, recording six interceptions and two shots on goal across 90 minutes as LAFC's most active defensive presence in a match where RSL generated sustained pressure throughout the second half. He also registered five shots on goal as LAFC's most frequent attacking contributor from the back line, arriving at set pieces to test Rafael on multiple occasions.

Impact Bouanga opened the scoring in the 14th minute, receiving Son Heung-Min's long ball, cutting inside past Philip Quinton and curling a right-footed finish into the top corner, before delivering the cutback pass that Son finished in the 38th minute to restore LAFC's lead at 2-1. He registered two shots and eight chances created across 90 minutes in what was his most complete individual all-around performance of the season.

Son Heung-min - Two goal contributions against RSL Son scored one goal and assisted once from four shots and two chances created in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Real Salt Lake.

Impact Son assisted Denis Bouanga's 14th minute opener with a precise long ball, then finished Bouanga's cutback from inside the box in the 38th minute to give LAFC a 2-1 lead heading into halftime, before being denied a stoppage-time winner when DeAndre Yedlin made a last-ditch clearance after Son had rounded Rafael inside the box with the goal at his mercy in the 87th minute. He registered four shots and two chances created across 90 minutes in what was LAFC's most complete individual attacking performance of the road trip.

Hugo Lloris - Seven saves in draw Lloris registered seven saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Real Salt Lake.

Impact Lloris made seven saves in Saturday's 2-2 MLS road draw at Real Salt Lake, producing outstanding stops from Lukas Engel's point-blank redirection in the 41st minute, a deflected Luca Moisa shot in the 54th and Noel Caliskan's effort in the 58th to keep LAFC's lead intact, before his diving parry in the 75th minute fell directly to Caliskan who equalized for RSL. He also held firm on two further second-half RSL attempts as the home side pushed for a winner in the final quarter. Lloris will look to build on that performance in Wednesday's clash against New York Red Bulls.

Ryan Porteous - Doubtful with leg injury Porteous has suffered a leg injury that could force him to miss future contests, per the MLS Player Status Report.

Impact Porteous has been excellent as a central piece of his side's defensive unit lately, racking up 47 clearances, 13 tackles and eight interceptions over a string of nine league starts, so his potential absence is an unwelcome development that could alter the squad's usual setup. Without further information about the issue, the Scottish international will remain questionable for the time being. Nkosi Tafari is available as a possible replacement, while the versatile Eddie Segura could also move from midfield to the defense if required.
