Why bet on Real Salt Lake

Real Salt Lake will try to get back to winning ways in order to stay in the Playoff qualification zone. Currently, the team coached by Freddy Juárez is seventh in Zone B with 16 points. Only one win in their last five games has not exactly helped Salt Lake’s position in the standings.

Why bet on Los Angeles Galaxy

The team is coming off a comeback at the hands of Vancouver Whitecaps. They started leading after five minutes with a goal by Rayan Raveloson, but Colombians Déiber Caicedo (’48) and Cristián Dájome (’77) reversed the story. A rate of almost two points per game should be more than enough to guide the Galaxy comfortably into the playoffs, where they are expected to compete rather than simply make up the numbers.

Final betting analysis between: Los Angeles Galaxy vs Real Salt Lake

We expect a tough win for LA Galaxy, who have a bit more individual quality than the visitors. However, Salt Lake showed signs of improvement during their narrow loss to Los Angeles over the weekend, so they certainly have enough on them to be competitive at the very least. The Galaxy, meanwhile, is five points behind the league-leading Seattle Sounders but does have an eight-point gap over Salt Lake, which is one spot out of the playoffs.

After a thorough analysis of the statistics, recent form, and head-to-head games between Los Angeles Galaxy and Real Salt Lake, we believe Galaxy will win this match by the score of 2-1.
