They scored seven goals and forfeited five in their last five games with San Jose. Betting On San Jose Earthquakes 1XBet Spread: +1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 3.645 San Jose got back to the winning side with a 2-0 home victory of the Seattle Sounders in league game last week. It was their first victory in six meetings and third in 10. That result took the edge off of the criticisms they had been getting due to a disappointing run of results.  The Earthquakes will hope to keep this momentum tofell the Timbers today.

Only four of Real’s 10 league wins this year has happened at home. Salt Lake defeated the New York Red Bulls 3-1 in their last match, with Diego Luna delivering a brace before Jefferson Savarino wrapped up the points late in the game. Betting On The Seattle Sounders 1XBet Spread: +1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 3.625 Seattle Sounders on their own path, have fought for results in their home matches lately and hope to find better luck today. They drew 1-2 against FC Dallas the last time they were on the road and probably deserved more from the match, but wasted their finishing. Sounders reached the finals in the previous edition of the Leagues Cup before losing 3-2 to Mexican side Leon and hope to stay till the end this year. They are unbeaten in their last two matches of this fixture, after losing four games before that. Five of the Sounders’ eight league defeats this year were on the road. Seattle has the second-best defensive record in the MLS this season with a goal concession tally of 23. MatchPlug Prediction Real Salt Lake were victorious in three of their last four games and are unbeaten in their last 10 games across all contests. They are undefeated in their last five games at home, and will hopefully recreate that result today. Seattle Sounders on the other hand, are in a run of winless outings and won only two of their last nine games. They won one of their last five away matches and may lose today. Final Prediction: Real Salt Lake Moneyline.

Betting On CF Montreal 1XBet Spread: -1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Over 0.5 1XBet Moneyline: 2.144 CF Montreal got back to the winning side after four matches on Sunday, thanks to first-half goals from Kwado Opoku and Chinonso Offor, which helped them clinch a 2-0 home win over Charlotte in the MLS. Although they haven’t played the Pumas before, Montreal has certainly faced Mexican teams 12 times, winning only twice in that time. They have recorded 5 defeats and five matches that ended in draws. They have only one win from their last 5 matces in all competitions. Montreal has failed to score four times in their last seven games and have maintained four clean sheets in that period too. Betting On Pumas UNAM 1XBet Spread: +1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Under 0.5 1XBet Moneyline: 3.39 Pumas UNAM have rode on an undefeated start to their Liga MX Apertura campaign, although their last two league matches ended in ties. They have been invited to the Leagues Cup for the second time, after making their debut in the 2021 edition. UNAM was knocked out of the contest in the semi-finals last two years and will want to improve on that record this year. This season, 47 other teams will join the Leagues Cup, which contains the 29 MLS teams and 18 Liga MX teams. The Pumas are alongside DC United in Group East 2. The guests have played MLS teams 11 times, recording four wins, five defeats and two draws. MatchPlug Prediction Montreal has lost three of their four matches in July, including two in three games. They could not score in four of their last five matches in all competitions and may struggle tomorrow. They won seven of their last nine home games in all competitions. Meanwhile, UNAM lost only once in their past seven games in every competition and three of their last five games ended in draws. Considering the hosts poor performance in recent outings and poor track record playing Mexican teams, the visitors are expected to secure a close win. Final Prediction: CF Montreal Moneyline.

Colorado Rapids VS Houston Dynamo will see the Rapids try to get three matches undefeated when they host Dynamo at DSG park today. Houston on the other hand, want to end a four-game winless stretch after suffering their 10th loss of the year in midweek to Minnesota United. MatchPlug has the picks, odds, and Soccer Predictions today for Colorado VS Houston. We are a Hot Prediction Site for MLS matches and previews. Predictions and Betting Preview for Colorado Rapids VS Houston Dynamo Game 24 Venue: DSG Park, Colorado. When: Sunday, July 16th, 2023 Time: 2:30 GMT Teams to play: Colorado and Houston. MLS Picks: MONEYLINE 2.35 Odds provided by 1XBet. Betting On Colorado Rapids 1XBet Spread: 0 1XBet Over/Under: Over 2 1XBet Moneyline: 2.35 The Colorado Rapids finished off with a scoreless draw against the Portland Timbers on Wednesday July 4 at the DSG Park. This game resumed in the 46th minute, and only players who were active on July 4 could play, meaning that Andrew Gutman of the Rapids, who joined the team after that date, was ruled out of the match. The result leaves Colorado at the bottom of the Western Conference on 18 points after 22 matches, but the Rapids have only lost once in their last four outings, meaning they may have turned a corner. A playoff spot for this team is realistically out of reach, with the Rapids 11 points behind Dallas FC in seventh, but a good climax to the season may be in the cards for them. Betting On Houston Dynamo 1XBet Spread: 0 1XBet Over/Under: Under 2 1XBet Moneyline: 3.416 Failing to qualify for the playoffs in each of the past five seasons, Houston was set to clinch a top-seven position in the Western Conference and be present for the business end of the season. This plan took a huge blow Wednesday night when they were defeated by Minnesota United onthe road, courtesy of strikes from Bongokuhle Hlongwane, Ismael Tajouri, and Teemu Pukki, but their is still time to turn things in their favor. Houston is presently, ninth position in the Western Conference, after picking up 28 points from 22 matches, with only eight wins coming on the road. Since they had an easy 4-1 victory over San Jose Earthquakes on June 22, Houston lost consecutive games against Austin FC and Seattle Sounders before splitting the spoils in an intriguing 2-2 draw with Sporting Kansas City and suffering a loss to Minnesota United, so they are expected to end the winless curse today. MatchPlug Prediction Although they enter today’s game in better form, Colorado Rapids still hage a poor home record, and Houston has a bad away record, so the teams might cancel each other out, resulting in a draw.

Austin FC VS Sporting Kansas City clash at the Q2 Stadium today in the latest MLS fixture between these two teams. Austin is in sixth position in the Western Conference, three points better of than the visitors, who are presently in 11th place.

MLS Picks: MONEYLINE 2.085 Odds as provided by 1XBet. Betting On Austin FC 1XBet Spread: -1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Over 3.5 1XBet Moneyline: 2.085 Austin FC has gathered 29 points from 22 MLS matches played so far, which means they are presently in the playoff places, but they won’t reach the top position, since they are 12 points behind St. Louis City who is in first place. Despite this setback, Austin is still on track to have a great season, and their form has gotten better in recent weeks, gathering 10 points in their last five games, defeating Houston Dynamo, Dallas FC and Minnesota United. This team won their last two home games without forfeiting a goal, so they will be happy to be playing at Q2 today, as they have had a patchy form on the road lately, losing to the Vancouver Whitecaps the last time. Austin sank into a 2-1 defeat in Canada, in what was an inspiring peformance, scoring just two shots on target throughout the whole match, a necessary improvement will be needed this week. But, they struggled the last they played against Sporting Kansas City, losing 4-1 in the alternate fixture back in June, despite controlling most of the possession. Possible Lineup: Stuver, Lima, Cascante, Keller, Gallagher, Wolff, Jimenez, Redes, Driussi, Fagundez, Urruti Betting On Sporting Kansas City 1XBet Spread: +1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Under 3.5 1XBet Moneyline: 3.355 Sporting Kansas City somehow became easy winners in the last fixture between the two teams, but their form since then has been disappointing, winner only one of their last six matches. Kansas drew three of those matches, and are unbeaten in July, so there is an upside for them, but they will need more wins, and quickly too if they want to be in the playoffs. They are  presently two points off the playoff spots, but they have played three matches more than the two teams directly above them in the table, and blew a good chance to secure three points the last time. Sporting went in 2-0 up at half-time against Real Salt Lake, with Daniel Salloi and Johnny Russell getting on the scoresheet, but they lost control of the game in the second half, eventually ending 2-2. They have played poorly on the road since this season, not winning away from home since a 2-1 victory at Seattle Sounders at the beginning of May. Possible Lineup: McIntosh, Davis, Rosero, Fontas, Leibold, Thommy, Radoja, Walter, Russell, Saloi, Pulido. MatchPlug Prediction Austin FC have played well at home in recent weeks, winning their last two games at Q2 3-0, and experts expect them to have another easy victory this Saturday. While they lost to Kansas City in April, they are three points above them in the table, even after playing two fewer matches. Final Prediction: Austin FC Moneyline.

Betting On Los Angeles FC  1XBet Spread: -1 1XBet Over/Under: Over 3 1XBet Moneyline: 1.555 Despite gathering 17 shots plus 8 attempts on target, Los Angels FC took a shameful 2-1 loss against LA Galaxy in midweek, with Ex-Barca midfielder Riqui Puig delivering the winning goal to bury this team. The loss followed them to losing three matches, with a 3-2 loss against the White Vancouver Whitecaps and a 2-0 win from FC Dallas preceding their El Trafico failure on Tuesday. However, the defending MLS champions are only three points from the Western Conference leaders St. Louis City FC, thanks to their outstanding start to the season, as they had a sole defeat in their opening 13 league matches, securing 7 wins and five draws. No matter, LAFC has the best defensive record in the West and the second-best defensive record in the MLS, so they may be ending their losing streak today. Possible Lineup: McCarthy, Duenas, Maldonado, Chiellini, Hollingshead, Acosta, Sanchez, Tillman, Opoku, Vela, Bouanga. Betting On San Jose Earthquakes 1XBet Spread: +1 1XBet Over/Under: Under 3 1XBet Moneyline: 5.71 San Jos Earthquakes stole up on LA Galaxy twice to secure a draw last weekend, when Jack Skahan delivered an equalizer at halftime before Christian Espinoza clinched a point for his team in the 81st minute. Due to this, the Earthquakes enter today’s game on a four-game winless run, recording two draws and two defeats since their last victory, with consecutive losses against Houston Dynamo and St Louis City preceding last weekend’s draw.  Note, that San Jose lost two of their last eight games, picking two wins and four draws, so they’ll need to avoid defeat today. On that note, the Earthquakes have the second-worst away record in the Western Conference, recordings just one win, three draws, and six losses on the road this season. They have also forfeited 19 goals across their 10 away league games this year, maintaining only two clean sheets in this journey, with the 4-1 whipping from Houston marking the beginning of their road struggles.  Possible Lineup: Daniel, Akapo, Jonathan, Rodrigues, Trauco, Yueill, Gruezo, Skahan, Tsakiris, Espinoza, Ebobisse. MatchPlug Prediction It is hard to picture LAFC suffering four consecutive losses, especially with the type of squad they have. Today’s match will be tight and locked as Los Angeles will want to end their losing streak. However, they have enough ammunition to dispatch San Jose.  Final Prediction: Los Angeles FC Moneyline.

Betting On Los Angeles Galaxy  1XBet Spread: 0 1XBet Over/Under: Over 3 1XBet Moneyline: 2.41 Los Angeles Galaxy serves up its share of thrills, and last weekend’s game with Los Angeles FC was no different, as they secured a 2-1 victory over LAFC in the presence of a record MLS crowd. Galaxy has evaded defeat in every of their last 6 matches, defeating Real Salt Lake before getting four consecutive draws, with last weekend’s win extending their fire streak. However, do keep in mind that LA Galaxy managed to win only two of their opening 14 MLS games this year, recording three draws and nine losses in that process, so they still have lots of work to do if they wish to make it to playoffs. Another thing to note is that Galaxy has the worst defensive record and the second-worst offensive record in the Western Conference, meaning they must improve on both sides. Possible Lineup: Bond, Calegari, Leerdam, Mavinga, Edwards; Delgado, Burgman, Puig, Boyd, Judd, Costa. Betting On Philadelphia Union 1XBet Spread: 0 1XBet Over/Under: Under 3 1XBet Moneyline: 2.904 Philadelphia Union racked up a nine-game undefeated streak between April and June, securing 7 wins and 2 draws in the MLS, they seem fated to win the Eastern Conference.  But, the team has struggled to stay consistent since that time, clinching one win, one draw and two defeats, and have failed on the road in recent weeks, taking just one point from their last three road matches. The Union enter today’s match with a 2-0 defeat against Atlanta United, with them mustering a sole attempt on their opponent at Mercedes Benz Stadium last weekend. Although, Philadelphia stays five points inside the top seven teams in the Eastern Conference and 15 points higher than Los Angeles in overall standings – winning 10 of their 20 league encounters this year. Possible Lineup: Bendik, Glesnes, Elliott, Harriel, Mbaizo, Bedoya, Martinez, Flach, Gazdag, Carranza, Uhre. MatchPlug Prediction LA Galaxy may have improved their performance in recent weeks, but the Philadelphia Union still has what it takes to win the Western Conference team. Galaxy will put up a strong fight, but the Union may secure a close victory at Dignity Health, as they get back to winning.  Final Prediction: Los Angeles Galaxy Moneyline.
