Houston vs Los Angeles FC Pick Analysis
Los Angeles FC has played very well of late with four victories in the last five matches Houston has lost two straight and three of the last four. However, the play here is OVER. A combined three goals or more have been scored in four of LAFC's last five matches, all of which were Leagues Cup or U.S. Open Cup fixtures but with MLB opponents. Look for LAFC the score early and often against a subpar Houston backline and the goalkeeper. Final Score Prediction, Los Angeles FC won but our best play is OVER 4-1.
