St. Louis City vs D.C. United Prediction & Match Preview

• St. Louis City fired 19 shots in the away draw at LA Galaxy last weekend.
• D.C. United are winless in three straight games.
• Three of the inaugural four outings D.C. United played this season saw at least four goals scored.

St. Louis City survived a trip to California by holding LA Galaxy to a 3-3 stalemate last weekend in Carson. Bradley Carnell’s men produced an outstanding showing in a fantastic game that ended in a six-goal stalemate. St. Louis City were unlucky to concede a last-gasp equalizer in the stoppage time on the occasion.

The draw in Carson extended St. Louis City’s unbeaten thread to three MLS games. They’ll have a nice opportunity to keep it alive on Saturday evening in the home clash against D.C. United. The visitors are winless in three straight league matches. They suffered their maiden loss of the 2024 campaign eight days ago. Inter Miami picked up a 3-1 victory with a brace from Luis Suarez at Audi Field.

To further complicate things for D.C. United ahead of this game, they will be without several important first-team regulars on Saturday. Defender Aaron Herrera, midfielder Matti Peltola, and striker Kristian Fletcher are all away on international duty. Left-back Pedro Santos is suspended after getting sent off in the last weekend’s loss to Inter Miami.

St. Louis City vs D.C. United Prediction

D.C. United have big problems ahead of the trip to Missouri. They are winless in three successive league games. Their coach Troy Lesesne will be without at least four starters through both international duty and suspensions. The team’s back line has been anything but impressive of late. The Black and Red allowed 18 shots in the 1-3 home defeat to Lionel Messi-less Inter Miami last weekend. On the other side we have free-scoring St. Louis City. The hosts bagged seven goals in the last three league games. They’ll go into this on the back of a magnificent display in a 3-3 draw at LA Galaxy. We’ll take the home win pick at the 1.95 odds.

The value is decent with the Over 2.5 goals bet at the 1.70 odds as well. St. Louis City have been scoring at will lately. Each of the last two games they played provided at least four goals. The same scenario happened in three of D.C. United’s inaugural four matches of the season.
