For the Red Bulls, they haven't even appeared in MLS Cup since 2008 and will have a chance to win it for the first time. It's quite a contrast to the sleeping giants in the Galaxy who have already won a league-record five MLS Cups but have also not appeared in one since 2014. Let's take a look at what to know ahead of this clash:

Galaxy midfielder Riqui Puig suffered a torn ACL in his left knee in last night’s Western Conference final and will miss Saturday’s MLS Cup. The club confirmed the injury after Puig underwent an MRI Sunday morning. He will undergo surgery at a later date.

Call them the Road Warriors. New York has already recorded road wins against Columbus, New York City FC, and Orlando City SC. Playing the final on the Galaxy home field, in the Galaxy home stadium, Red Bulls are the underdog, but as they showed so far, they don’t care.

The LA Galaxy announced on Sunday that midfielder Riqui Puig tore the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his left knee during the Western Conference final against Seattle Sounders FC on Saturday night.
