Sporting Kansas City vs Los Angeles FC Prediction

In their previous meeting earlier this season, LAFC won 2-0 on the road. LAFC is 7-0-2 in their last 9 overall meetings against Kansas City, and 3-0-2 in their last 5 meetings in LA. Under 3.25 is 6-1 in their last 7 meetings.

In this Sporting Kansas City vs Los Angeles FC Prediction, Los Angeles FC is coming as -215 home favorites. LAFC is rightfully favored, as they have far more points this season, and have 5 wins in their 7 home games, while Kansas City is struggling on the road, with 5 losses in 9 road games. LAFC has been dominating at home, but there is no value in such a huge moneyline. In order to get some value we need to bet LAFC by -1.25 goals, which means we need them to win by 2+ goals in order to cash. Kansas City has not lost in their last 4 games, so I see no value on either side.

Both teams are 12-2 to the over in their last 14 games combined, and they average 3.36 goals per game this season, which is higher than today’s today of 3.25. Take the over 3.25 goals in this one.
