Betting on Los Angeles Galaxy
The LA Galaxy had a streak of three consecutive defeats but finally managed to get a win at home against Austin FC, winning 2-0. Many believed that this win would be a turning point for the team, but unfortunately, that was not the case.
In the last match, Orlando brought the Galaxy back to reality, beating it 2-0. This loss hurt the team as it realized that its defense is very weak. In fact, the team has already conceded 17 goals in just nine matches played.
Its defensive woes are also evident at home, where this team has played four games and has conceded six goals. Only in the game against Austin, which it won, did LA Galaxy manage to keep a clean sheet. Last season, it finished fourth in its conference and made it to the semifinals. However, this season, it is far from that level.
Possible Lineup (4-4-2): Jonathan Klinsmann; Lucas Calegari, Martin Caceres, Jalen Neal, Julian Aude; Douglas Costa, Marky Delgado, Gaston Brugman, Tyler Boyd; Javier Hernandez, Dejan Jovelijic.
Betting on Colorado Rapids S.C.
After a shaky start, this team has gotten used to not losing, going on six games without a defeat. However, it only has one victory because all the other challenges have ended in a draw.
In its last three games, Colorado Rapid has had a tie. In the first one, it drew 2-2 against Charlotte, the second one 1-1 against St. Louis SC, and, finally, 0-0 against Vancouver. If you notice, there is a clear trend: this team is scoring less and conceding fewer goals.
Actually, it has already won once on the road (its only victory). However, it has conceded eight goals and only scored four times, indicating that it is not yet a balanced team.
Possible Lineup (3-4-2-1): William Yarbrough; Lalas Aboubakar, Andreas Maxso, Danny Wilson; Keegan Rosenberry, Max, Connor Ronan, Steven Beitashour; Diego Rubio, Sam Nicholson; Michael Barrios.
JefeBet Prediction
It’s going to be a clash between two desperate teams, since both have only one victory under their belts. Consequently, at JefeBet, we believe that they’ll split the points in a match with few thrills. Both teams struggle to score, and we don’t expect much action in front of the goals. They’re likely to play it safe and avoid taking unnecessary risks.
Prediction: Tie (LAG 1-1 COL)
