New England on Friday

There is a chance that LA Galaxy may not be league leaders by the time they start their next match against the New England Revolution on Friday Real Salt Lake and the Houston Dynamo (tied in second place), play in Salt Lake City on Thursday night.
If they remain the league leaders after Thursday's game, it will be a clash of the Eastern Conference and Western Conference top teams. Salt lake and the Dynamo are two points behind, so only a draw will keep Galaxy on top.
Galaxy have made things hard for themselves in the last few games, a draw followed by a heavy defeat on Sunday and now to face the Eastern Conference league leaders may add to the pressure. Rest assured though, if there's one thing that David Beckham responds to - it's pressure.
