Real Salt Lake vs LAFC

MLS Odds: Real Salt Lake +190; LAFC +120
Saturday, March 2nd at 2:00 pm ET
America First Field, Sandy, Utah, USA

Like every team in MLS, Real Salt Lake is tough to beat at home. However, RSL is in terrible form, losers of 3-of-5 with a draw against St. Louis City in their last.

LAFC has won 4-of-5. Los Angeles’s lone toe stub in the last 5 happened in a road match versus tough squad Columbus. The road side gets it done.

Inter Miami CF vs Orlando City SC

MLS Odds: Inter Miami CF -1 +100; Orlando City SC +1 -130

Often, Messi and his buds get overplayed. The same thing happened in the Champions League and La Liga when Lionel was at Barcelona.

The same thing is happened in this. No way Inter Miami should be a -1 +100 favorite. Orlando City should be +1 -175 to -180. The OC soccer club is in better form. Grab the +1.

Houston Dynamo FC vs New York Red Bulls

Saturday, March 2nd at 8:30 pm ET
Shell Energy Stadium, Houston, Texas, USA

The Dynamo and Red Bulls have the same form. Both won their fifth and fourth games back. Then both drew in their third game back.

Both head into this on 2 game losing streaks. Houston has the edge because this on their pitch. Also, these two drew in the last head-to-head in New York.

Colorado Rapids vs Nashville SC

Dick’s Sporting Goods Park, Commerce City, Colorado, USA

Both teams are struggling, which is why Colorado is just a -20 home odds favorite over Nashville.

The Rapids have lost 2 straight and 3-of-5. Nashville shows a win over Moca and a draw in their last. Don’t read too much into Nashville’s win. It was versus an overmatched club. Colorado and get back on the right track in this.

San Jose Earthquakes vs L.A. Galaxy

MLS Odds: San Jose Earthquakes -125; L.A. Galaxy +285
PayPal Park, San Jose, California, USA

Both teams are struggling big time. Home squad San Jose shows 3 draws and 2 losses in their last 5. The Galaxy have lost 3 times and drawn twice in their last 5.

It’s tough back either to win in regulation. If you want to play the moneyline, go with the Galaxy because the much better possible payout. The draw, though, is the optimal play.

Seattle Sounders FC vs Austin FC

MLS Odds: Seattle Sounders FC -1 +100; Austin FC +1 -130

Seattle isn’t playing well. Still, the Sounders are much better than their current form. So we should throw out Seattle’s form.

This is especially true because Austin’s is worse. The Sounders have beaten Austin in 2-fo-3 with a draw. Seattle should turn things around. Lay the -1 that the Sounders turn it round starting with this match.
