LAFC hosts Austin FC in what should be the most entertaining event of the entire MLS round.
Before Betting on LAFC vs. Austin FC
The hosts played without goals against Colorado Rapids on the road, which was unexpected. Both teams play more or less open and offensive football, so 0-0 is a strange outcome. It was the second goalless draw for LAFC in the past three events, and both were on the road.
MLS champions are third in the West, four points behind St. Louis, but with a game in hand. A win here would bring them back in the position to reach the top spot in the near future.
On the other side is Austin, who didn’t win in the last back-to-back events. At first, Houston was better in the state matchup, 2-0 and after that, we saw them playing 1-1 at home against the Rapids.
Austin was one of the most enjoyable teams to watch last season, as their games brought a high number of goals. Right now, that isn’t the case, with the five latest events Austin played ending with moderate efficiency, meaning two or three goals.

Over 2.5 goals is the pick of the day, in our opinion. LAFC is always ultra-aggressive at home, while on the other side, Austin’s offensive mentality won’t allow them to back down. So goals are the most reliable option here.
