FC Dallas vs Los Angeles FC
Major League Soccer
Date: Sunday, 3rd June 2018
Kick-Off at 1:00 UK/ 2:00 CET
Venue: Toyota Stadium (Frisco, Texas).
FC Dallas have been in great shape recently and they’ve made the top 2 in Western Conference with three wins and just one draw seen in their last four outings, hosting Los Angeles FC on Sunday hoping to build on such performances at challenge Sporting KC at the top of the table.
Toros have beaten LA Galaxy (3-2) and held Vancouver Whitecaps (2-2) in their last two outings at Toyota Stadium and built on the success on the road, outclassing Toronto (0-1) and Galaxy (2-3 once again). They’ve been scoring many goals and it does feel Oscar Pareja’s men are very tough to hold back.
Furthermore, Los Angeles FC have had their consistency disrupted and only earned two points in their last three MLS outings – holding New York City (2-2) and DC United (1-1) to draws and suffering a narrow 2-1 loss at Portland Timbers along the way. They have struggled defensively on the road and this could be even more worrying ahead of the trip to Frisco, Texas looking to jump the rivals in a direct head-to-head clash.
We will now back Dallas to build on their fine recent form and bag their historic first win over the rivals, which does feel like more of a banker bet at 1.60 seeing that Los Angeles FC have struggled to end their winless streak recently.
We have seen LA FC regularly scoring goals too, though, and we do believe they’ll make it on the scoresheet on the day. Both sides have been scoring and conceding goals on the regular and going for a Yes on Both teams to score also looks a solid bet to get behind at 1.61.
