"He wants to train today," Heath said from Los Angeles before Tuesday training. "So he'll train and we'll go from there." … Heath said captain Wil Trapp is "back and available" after he missed Saturday's game because of yellow card accumulation … The two teams have met once already this season, a 1-1 draw at Allianz Field in May … Galaxy have played twice since the international break's end and drew with Portland and lost to the USL Championship's Sacramento Republic in a U.S. Open Cup game … Loons veteran defender Oniel Fisher played for Galaxy in 2021 and Galaxy's Raheem Edwards played in Minnesota in 2020.
