LAFC won the Supporters' Shield but is not the favorite to win Major League Soccer

For the second time in four years, the Los Angeles Football Club won the MLS Supporters' Shield. But the team, despite winning this championship, has shown irregular performance and could cause them not to win in the playoffs.

Carlos Vela's team claimed that honor in 2022 after beating the Portland Timbers 2-1 in a dramatic away game, ultimately beating the Philadelphia Union. They had already obtained it in 2019, when they achieved a record of 72 points in that regular season, broken in 2021 by the New England Revolution (73).
