Why Leon is a Good Bet versus LAFC
Not only has Leon won 3-of-4, but the Mexican Liga squad dominated the first leg versus Major League Soccer squad Los Angeles Football Club.
Leon controlled possession 51% to 49%. The Mexican Liga team took 16 shots and 7 on goal compared to 10 total shots for LAFC and 3 on goal from the MLS squad.

Why LAFC is a Good Bet versus Leon
The first leg played at Estadio Leon in Leon de Los Aldamas, Mexico, home of LAFC’s rivals. On Sunday, the venue switched to BMO Stadium where the top team in MLS should have the advantage. Not only that, but although LAFC lost the first match, they accomplished their second mission.
LAFC wanted to escape Mexico with a draw. They didn’t get the draw, however, if not the draw, then no more than a goal deficit. Now, LAFC has advantages and making up a goal on their pitch is more than possible.

Final Betting Analysis: Leon at LAFC
Leon is in a precarious situation. Although the Mexican Liga squad has a goal lead, beating an MLS team on their pitch won’t be easy.
Not only that, but once Leon became more conservative in the second half of the first leg match, LAFC started to impose their will.
So Leon must make a decision. Do they go for it early by pushing the attack and possibly open themselves up to a counter or do they play it safe and allow LAFC’s strikers to tee off on them?
Either way, Leon should be in some trouble. Don’t be surprised when LAFC wins this 2-0 and takes the CONCACAF Champions League title.
