Betting on Vancouver Whitecaps
After five matchdays played, the Vancouver Whitecaps team still has not been able to win. In fact, it has only managed to secure three points from three draws and two losses. The team joins the likes of LA Galaxy, Sporting KC, and Colorado Rapids as one of the few MLS teams yet to notch a victory this season.
The draws have come consecutively, and although they could indicate that the team has been improving, it has not corrected its defensive errors and continues to allow goals in every game. Playing on its home field, it has recorded one draw and one loss. Moreover, its last league win was recorded in October 2022.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Yohei Takaoka; Mathías Laborda, Ranko Veselinovic, Tristan Blackmon, Ryan Raposo; Julian Gressel, Sebastian Berhalter, Alessandro Schöpf; Cristián Dájome, Brian White, Ryan Gauld.
Betting on CF Montreal
CF Montreal found itself in the same group as its rival, among the non-winners, but managed to break free by securing its first win of the season in its previous match, defeating the Philadelphia Union 3-2. This is great news, as the team had lost three games in a row and failed to score in all of them.
The team’s three defeats were all suffered in away matches, and this will be its fourth performance on foreign ground, where it has yet to score a goal. All of this makes it the worst away team in the Eastern Conference. In fact, in two of those three losses, the team went to halftime being two goals down.
Probable lineup (3-4-1-2): Jonathan Sirois; Joel Waterman, Rudy Camacho, Kamal Miller; Lassi Lappalainen, Rida Zouhir, Victor Wanyama, Mathieu Choiniere; Nathan Saliba; Mason Toye, Romell Quioto.
JefeBet Prediction
The Vancouver Whitecaps are gearing up to face off against a rival they’ve already lost to this season. While this might seem like a disadvantage, the fact that they are experts in draws could help level the playing field. The home team has come out on top in the last two matches at BC Place, but this time around, JefeBet predicts that it’ll be a stalemate.
Prediction: Moneyline Tie (VAN 1-1 MON).
