Today, the Kansas City Wizards face their toughest test of the early MLS season as the undefeated Los Angeles Galaxy come to town. Galaxy striker Edson Buddle is on fire, scoring 7 goals through 4 games. Buddle has every goal for the Galaxy, and Landon Donovan has 4 assists. Kansas City will look to keep the high-pressure tactics going, and will likely need some big saves from goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen, who has the second-best goals against average in MLS. Who has the best GAA? LA's Donovan Ricketts.
