MLS Cup is a chance for a team's stars to shine at their brightest but when the LA Galaxy host the New York Red Bulls in MLS' biggest match on Saturday, they'll be without their biggest star in the middle in Riqui Puig.

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.

The Galaxy are definitely going to have a different look and feel without Riqui Puig available to play in the MLS Cup final against the New York Red Bulls.

Spanish midfielder Riqui Puig, the key playmaker for Los Angeles Galaxy, has suffered an ACL knee injury and will miss Saturday's MLS Cup final against the New York Red Bulls, the club said on Sunday.

The No. 7 New York Red Bulls earned their spot first, becoming the lowest seed to appear in the final. The Red Bulls stunned the No. 2 Columbus Crew, the reigning cup champions, with a 2-0 first-round series sweep. They went on to eliminate No. 6 NYCFC and No. 4 Orlando City in single-elimination games.

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:
