Impact Tajouri-Shradi hasn't played in almost three months but will hope to make his return for a rivalry matchup. With Gareth Bale's debut pending to the coming weeks, Tajouri-Shradi needs to take his chances when he can.

Ismael Tajouri-Shradi - On bench for derby Tajouri-Shradi (quad) made the bench for Friday's match against the LA Galaxy.
Gareth Bale - Not available against LAG Bale isn't listed on the team sheet for Friday's match against the Los Angeles Galaxy, according to reporter Araceli Villanueva.
Impact Bale won't even have his introductory press conference until Monday so this shouldn't come as a major surprise. The other major signing, Giorgio Chiellini, did make the bench Friday.
JULY 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Tomas Romero - Should be available Romero's name doesn't appear on the injury list ahead of Friday's match against the LA Galaxy.
Impact Romero is the third option on the depth chart and unlikely to play even when available, so this mainly serves to shorten the list among his club's absent players.

Ismael Tajouri-Shradi - Still missing matches Tajouri-Shradi (quad) is listed as questionable for Friday's match against the LA Galaxy.
Impact Tajouri-Shradi has missed 11 matches in a row and it's unwise to put any stock into his fitness until his name appears on a team sheet given that he's been listed as questionable in the last couple of weeks.
JULY 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Brian Rodriguez - Questionable against LAG Rodriguez (leg) is listed as questionable for Friday's match against the Los Angeles Galaxy.
Impact Rodriguez has missed two straight matches with this injury and it's still uncertain if he'll break that streak for this derby matchup. In better news, Carlos Vela has a good chance of playing and Gareth Bale could make his debut Friday.
JULY 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Carlos Vela - Off injury list Vela (leg) doesn't appear on the injury list for Friday's match against the Los Angeles Galaxy.
Impact Vela missed Saturday's loss to Vancouver but looks set to play in some capacity during the derby. Over his last three matches, Vela has started twice and logged three assists while scoring no goals. With Gareth Bale on tap to debut and other attackers also dealing with minor injuries, Vela is likely to play an important role no matter how many minutes he's available for.
JULY 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jesus Murillo - Should be fine Murillo (undisclosed) doesn't appear on the injury list for Friday's match against Los Angeles Galaxy, according to reporter Araceli Villanueva.
Impact Murillo left at halftime of Saturday's match against Vancouver but it hasn't seemed to limit him so far. It's still worth following who gets the start Friday as Giorgio Chiellini could also make his debut.

Impact The severity of Murillo's potential injury is unclear as of yet, but details will likely emerge in the coming days ahead of Friday's El Trafico against the Galaxy.

Ryan Hollingshead - Leader in chances created, tackles Hollingshead crossed once inaccurately, created a chance, made an interception, four tackles (winning one) and two clearances during Saturday's 1-0 loss to Vancouver.
Impact Hollingshead wasn't a factor on the scoresheet from his role at left wing-back on Saturday. The wide man finished with the second highest amount of crosses on the team while leading LAFC in chances created and tackles in the defeat.

Carlos Vela - Dealing with leg injury Vela is listed as questionable with a leg injury in LAFC's injury report for Saturday's clash against the Whitecaps.
Impact Vela bagged a brace of assists versus Dallas on Wednesday, but he will be carrying an injury designation into Saturday's match and will be a game time decision. With Brian Rodriguez (leg) also facing a fitness test, Kwadwo Opoku and Danny Musovski could take over in the starting lineup on the wings against Vancouver if necessary.

Eddie Segura - Appears off bench in win Segura played the final five minutes or so of Wednesday's 3-1 victory against FC Dallas.
Impact Segura made his first MLS appearance Wednesday since tearing his ACL about 11 months ago in July 2021. He will continue being slowly integrated back into the squad, but he will want to be challenging for a return to the starting lineup in central defense by the time he's fully fit again.

Maxime Crepeau - Concedes goal against Dallas Crepeau made two saves but conceded a goal in Wednesday's 3-1 victory against FC Dallas.
Impact Crepeau was beaten by a Jesus Ferreira free kick on Wednesday, but his side was able to bounce back and continued to prove why they are the favorites to win the Supporters' Shield. On Saturday he will face the 11th-placed Whitecaps, which have scored just 18 goals in 17 MLS matches this season.

Impact Cifuentes played well on both sides of the ball as his side recorded a statement win over a Western Conference rival in Dallas on Wednesday. But he also picked up a booking, which means he will be suspended for Saturday's clash against the Whitecaps due to yellow card accumulation. Latif Blessing or possibly Francisco Ginella could replace him in midfield for the match.

Carlos Vela - Records brace of assists in win Vela took five shots (two on target) and assisted two goals in Wednesday's 3-1 victory against FC Dallas. He created five chances overall in the match.
Impact Vela was an exceptional attacking force against Dallas as he set up goals for Cristian Arango and Kwadwo Opoku on Wednesday. He has two goals and three assists across his last five MLS appearances, and he will only be looking for more Saturday against the Whitecaps, which have conceded 28 times in 17 matches this season.
