Vancouver Whitecaps at LA Galaxy 3/7/20 - MLS Picks & Predictions

Two teams that did not make very good starts in the new season will lock horns on Saturday, when the LA Galaxy will play host to Vancouver. The LA Galaxy played a tough match in Houston but escaped with a point, while Vancouver lost badly at home against SKC.

Vancouver (0-1-0) conceded an early goal in their home match against Sporting Kansas City but did pull even just 11 minutes later. However, they conceded two more goals to meet a really bad loss at home. Vancouver have taken the lead in each of their previous three away MLS matches but have won just two of their last five (2-3-0). Moreover, there were at least Over 2.5 Goals in each of those five matches.

The LA Galaxy (0-0-1) played a really balanced match on the road against Houston and even took an early lead at the 13th minute. However, they were equalized in the second half and the two teams eventually split the points in a 1-1 draw. Seven of their last 12 matches for the MLS have produced at least Over 3.5 Goals, with an average of 5.08 goals per match in that span. The Galaxy scored 3.5 goals per match in their four home wins in that span.

The two teams exchanged away wins last season, with Vancouver winning by 4-3 after losing by 2-0 at home earlier in that season. The LA Galaxy have the upper hand as hosts against Vancouver over the years (9-3-1) and will surely look to please their fans here. But I will go with the Over 3.5 Goals here.
