In this Toronto FC vs Philadelphia Union, Philadelphia is coming as -225 home favorites. Philadelphia is rightfully favored, as they have almost 30 points more than Toronto, and they are the best team in the Eastern Conference. They have been extremely strong at home, and have been dominating Toronto at home, but they are a huge -225 favorite, which means we have to take the -1.5 spread in order to find some value. Philadelphia has won by 2 goals or more in half or less of their recent games, so I will take a pass on this bet.
Both teams are playing some higher scoring games lately, going for 9-4 to the over in their last 13 games combined, and the over is a dominating 12-1 in their last 13 head-to-head games.
