Doubtful with leg injury
Porteous has suffered a leg injury that could force him to miss future contests, per the MLS Player Status Report.
Analysis: Porteous has been excellent as a central piece of his side's defensive unit lately, racking up 47 clearances, 13 tackles and eight interceptions over a string of nine league starts, so his potential absence is an unwelcome development that could alter the squad's usual setup. Without further information about the issue, the Scottish international will remain questionable for the time being. Nkosi Tafari is available as a possible replacement, while the versatile Eddie Segura could also move from midfield to the defense if required.
Busy defensively Wednesday
Porteous made three interceptions and seven clearances in Wednesday's 3-1 victory versus Real Salt Lake.
Analysis: Porteous made seven clearances and five interceptions in Wednesday's 3-1 win, anchoring LAFC's defensive structure and limiting RSL's best chances in behind throughout a match the visitors had just one shot on target in the first half. He covered effectively whenever Ryan Hollingshead pushed forward at right wing-back, ensuring LAFC were never exposed on the counter despite their high offensive line. Porteous has now gone three consecutive MLS matches without conceding more than one goal as part of LAFC's defensive core.
