CARSON, Calif. (Sunday, March 30, 2014) – The LA Galaxy return to MLS action this week as the club takes on Chivas USA at StubHub Center on Sunday, April 6 at noon PT live on Time Warner Cable SportsNet and UniMas. In search of their first victory of the 2014 MLS campaign, the Galaxy head into their third match of the season with a 0-1-1 record with one point. Sunday’s fixture marks the first of three meetings between the longtime neighbors.


All-time, the Galaxy are 18-4-6 against Chivas USA with an 8-2-3 record as the “visitor” at StubHub Center. Since 2008, the Galaxy have only suffered one loss to Chivas USA, going 11-1-4 in that stretch.


Landon Donovan remains on 134 MLS regular season goals and sits just one goal shy of the League’s all-time regular season goals record. Donovan has 11 goals and 14 assists in 23 SuperClasico matches against the Galaxy’s Southern California rivals.


Donovan and Galaxy defender Omar Gonzalez departed Los Angeles for Phoenix today where the two will train as part of the 22-man squad that was called in by U.S. Men’s National Team head coach Jurgen Klinsmann ahead of the USA-Mexico match, presented by AT&T, on Wednesday, April 2 at University of Phoenix Stadium.
