Adrian Heath’s side have one of the worst home records in the entire division, picking up just 11 points from nine matches at Allianz Field this season. <\/strong>Only the Colorado Rapids have earned fewer points at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Bet on LAFC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As for Los Angeles, they secured a vital 3-1 victory in their first-ever match against St Louis City in midweek, with goals coming from Carlos Vela, Stipe Biuk, and Jose Cifuentes to lift themselves into second place in the Western Conference.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With their first goal, LAFC became the fastest team in MLS history to score 350 all-time regular-season goals, needing just 180 games to achieve the feat, demonstrating the progress the club has made in recent years.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The team has been on a wonderful run, currently sitting in 2nd place in the Western Conference, with 10 wins, 6 draws, and 6 losses, and only 2 points behind the top spot.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Final Betting Analysis: Minnesota United vs. LAFC<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Black & Gold have continuously found ways to pick themselves back up when in a slump. So, we expect them to build on the victory in midweek to make it two wins on the bounce. In addition, Minnesota has struggled at home all season, and we expect those struggles to continue this weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our pick is on Los Angeles for this clash.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Go for a victory for the visitors at +153. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $153 for a total payout of $253.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
