Lovely evening for football at Rio Tinto Stadium where the temperature is a balmy 68 degrees, the field immaculate and the snow-capped Wasatch Mountains glistening in the background.

The Galaxy have made just one change to the team that beat New York 1-0 last weekend with Stefani Miglioranzi playing in midfield in place of Josh Tudela who retreats to the bench.

The Galaxy XI: Ricketts, Franklin, Berhalter, Gonzalez, Dunivant, Klein, Kovalenko, Miglioranzi, Lewis, Buddle and Donovan.

RSL have Andy Williams making his first start of the season in place of the suspended Javier Morales, so we’ll see how he does pulling the strings in midfield for the hosts.

Ex-Galaxy striker Robbie Findley and Pasadena City College’s Yura Movsisyan are up front for RSL
