Austin FC vs San Diego FC Prediction
In their previous meeting earlier this season, Austin won 2-1 at home. In this Austin FC vs San Diego FC Prediction, San Diego is coming as -160 home favorites. San Diego is rightfully favored, as they have more points this season, and have been very strong at home, while Austin is struggling on the road. Both teams are coming into this matchup in good form, as San Diego has lost only once in their last six games, and Austin is undefeated in their last 5.
I expect this game to be very competitive, and while the draw looks like a likely outcome, I will take a look at the total. Both teams are tied for the third-best defense in the West, allowing 2.26 goals combined, and as a result, they have been playing some lower-scoring games lately, going for 7-2 to the under in their last 9 games. Add to the fact that Austin has the worst offense in the West with just 0.69 goals, I am looking at another low-scoring affair tonight. Take the under 2.75 goals.
