What to expect

We expect about 1.2 goals from Colorado Rapids and 1.6 from Los Angeles FC, so Los Angeles FC come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 2.8 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Our pick: Both teams to score. Both of these carry enough of a threat to find the net (xG 1.2-1.6), and we make both teams to score about 58%. Expect goals at either end rather than a one-sided shut-out.

We put the chance of that landing at about 58 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.56, which works out at about 64 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.

What the numbers say
Colorado Rapids have won two of their last five.
Los Angeles FC are unbeaten in their last five — four wins and one draw.
Four of the last five meetings had three goals or more.

One thing to watch

One well-drilled defence, or a game that turns one-sided, and this is gone. The price is shorter than our own read of about 58%, so there's less value here than the number suggests.
