Betting On The Vancouver Whitecaps 1XBet Spread: -1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Over 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 1.83 The Vancouver Whitecaps’ 3-0 loss to the LAFC in the CONCACAF Champions League was a hard blow for them. They couldn’t come back in the league as they drew 0-0 against Austin FC, lacking in offensive strength with few attacking opportunities. Vancouver holds the 8th position in the Western Conference, winning just two out of eight games played. They focused too much on the continental tournament, and now that it’s out of their brains, they can start growing in the League. It should be noted that the Whitecaps are a high-scoring team, with 11 goals, 8 of which were scored at home, where they don’t forfeit many goals, only conceding three. Possible Lineup: (4-3-3): Yohei Takaoka, Javain Brown, Ranko Veselinovic, Tristan Blackmon, Luis Martins, Julian Gressel, Andres Cubas, Ali Ahmed, Brian White, Simon Becher, Ryan Gauld. Betting On The Colorado Rapids SC 1XBet Spread: +1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 4.1 The Colorado Rapids won just one game in the tournament despite being undefeated in their last five games, with four of those five results ending in draws. Colorado is gradually growing as a club, managing to improve its defense, but enhancing its offense is still an ongoing project.  Averagely, the Rapids shoot just three times per game, which is low in a league as offensive as the American League. In their past two matches, they managed to score, but they conceded the same number of goals in the 2-2 draw against Charlotte FC and the  1-1 draw against St. Louis FC. Possible Lineup: (3-4-2-1): William Yarbrough, Lalas Abubakar, Andreas Maxso, Danny Wilson, Keegan Rosenberry, Bryan Acosta, Connor Ronan, Steven Beitashour, Max, Diego Rubio.

Final Prediction: Vancouver Whitecaps Moneyline.

Another Western showdown happening today is between Real Salt Lake VS Seattle Sounders. The longstanding rivalry between these clubs will rear its ugly head once again for this matchup. While it’s too early in the year to say, the result of this game may determine who advances to the postseason. As the teams warm up to deliver, MatchPlug has written this Betting Preview for the MLS Predictions, picks, odds, and analysis for Salt Lake VS Seattle. See: MLS Matchday 10: Austin FC VS San Jose Earthquakes Predictions Predictions and Betting Preview For Real Salt Lake VS Seattle Sounders Game 10 Venue: America First Field, Salt Lake City, Utah When: Saturday, April 29th, 2023 Time: 18:30 GMT Teams to play: Real Salt Lake and Seattle Sounders. MLS Picks: MONEYLINE 2.48 Odds as provided by 1XBet. Betting On Real Salt Lake 1XBet Spread: -1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Over 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 2.48 Real Salt Lake is presently in 9th place in the Western Conference, but wants to go up positions and catch up to every other club, after a rough start to the season; they recorded four successive losses. But the team has started gaining points already, which shows they can’t be pushed around by anyone. In their last match, they defeated the San Jose Earthquakes by a 3-1 result. Andrés Gómez contributed to this victory with a goal and an assist. Salt Lake is beginning to look more like a club with a solid defense, although it conceded at least one goal in the last three matches it played. The good thing is that the club can now react. Pablo Mastroeni’s team is more invested in gathering points, particularly at home, where they won two out of four matches. Winning today’s home game is important to them because they could use Utah’s altitude to punish its opponent. Possible Lineup (4-4-2): Zac MacMath, Bode Davis, Justen Glad, Marcelo Silva, Brayan Vera, Andres Gomez, Jasper Loffelesend, Pablo Ruiz, Jefferson Savarino, Anderson Julio, and Rubio Rubin. Betting On The Seattle Sounders 1XBet Spread: +1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 2.72 The Seattle Sounders are one of the top teams in the League, just like Salt Lake, but they reacted quickly and won three consecutive games. On the last matchday, the team won the Minnesota United team by a minimum difference, in a match where they tried everything until the 80th minute when they scored the goal that changed their situation.  Now, if they win this game, they could become the Western Conference leaders, which is possible especially since they won two of four matches played in this condition. Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Stefan Frai, Alex Roldan, Yeimar Gomez, Jackson Ragen, Nouhou Tolo, Obed Vargas, Joao Paulo, Jordan Morris, Nicolas Lodeiro, Leo Chu, and Raul Ruidiaz. Read: MLS Matchday 10: Vancouver Whitecaps VS Colorado Rapids Predictions MatchPlug Prediction Utah’s altitude will make a significant role in this match, but fans cannot forget Real Salt Lake’s current performance. On that note, Seattle’s team, with Nico Lodeiro and Ruidíaz, can cause some trouble with their opponents.  This is why experts believe that the Sounders will win this game. Their offensive lineup is strong and Utah’s defense struggles. Final Prediction: Real Salt Lake Moneyline.

The MLS Western Conference is hot with competition, as three strong teams battle to come out on top on matchday 10. Today Austin FC VS San Jose Earthquakes will clash, even if they’ve not been on the radar for the best-performing clubs due to some setbacks. Austin FC had a good season last year, but this year things aren’t panning out as they planned. They need to turn the tides in their favour as soon as they can. San Jose improved greatly when compared to their last year’s performance and they have the third-highest number of wins in MLS.

Read: MLS Matchday 10: Real Salt Lake VS Seattle Sounders Predictions Predictions and Betting Preview for Austin FC VS San Jose Earthquakes Game 10 Venue: Q2 Stadium, Austin, Texas When: Saturday, April 29th,  2023 Time: 17:30 GMT Teams to play: Austin FC and San Jose Earthquakes MLS Picks: MONEYLINE 2.01 Odds as seen on 1XBet. Betting On Austin FC 1XBet Spread: -1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Over 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 2.01 Austin FC recorded its 4th defeat of the year, last week when they lost 2-0 to LA Galaxy. This loss exposed the club’s shortcomings in a season where it has struggled to get positive results. Matter of fact, Austin has won just two out of eight matches played, and has gone winless for five matches; three losses and two draws. But, today’s match presents the opportunity for redemption in front of its home crowd, as they play their fifth home game of the year. Playing at home, Austin has lost just one of the four games; they recorded one win and two draws in their two most recent matches. Possibe lineup: Brad Stuver, Nick Lima, Alexander Ring, Leo Väisänen, Jon Gallagher; Ethan Finlay, Owen Wolff, Daniel Pereira Gil, Emiliano Rigoni, Maximiliano Urruti, Sebastian Driussi. Betting On The San Jose Earthquakes 1XBet Spread: +1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 3.48 The San Jose Earthquakes were on a winning streak, until they suffered their third loss of the year in the last game played against Real Salt Lake 3-1. Furthermore, San Jose was also defeated in the US Open Cup by a minimum difference, recording the club’s second consecutive loss. Before that happened, the Earthquakes were undefeated for 4 matches in the MLS, which is their best streak so far in 2023. Now, on a fifth match on the road, San Jose needs to display quality and secure a win. San Jose has not won on opponents’ territory since July last year, with a worrying streak of three draws and nine defeats. Possible lineup (4-3-2-1): James Marcinkowski, Carlos Akapo, Jonathan Mensah, Rodrigues, Paul Marie, Jackson Yueill, Carlos Gruezo, Jamiro Monteiro, Cristian Espinoza, Jeremy Ebobisse, Cade Cowell. See also: MLS Matchday 10: Vancouver Whitecaps VS Colorado Rapids Predictions MatchPlug Prediction Austin has an unmatched opportunity to change their fate this season. Playing a road game should be enough spur to win today’s match, and so does the positive streak where they went unbeaten for four home matches.  But, Austin’s advantage today comes from San Jose’s performance on the road. The Earthquakes have been without a win for nine months, and this match doesn’t seem like the opportunity to break this streak of doom. So, experts predict a home team win. Final Prediction: Austin FC Moneyline.
