Vancouver Whitecaps vs Los Angeles Galaxy Prediction & Betting Tips (14 April)

Winning away games was something that Los Angeles Galaxy did regularly towards the back end of last season, with the eventual runners-up securing five victories in their final eight trips. Vancouver Whitecaps, by way of contrast, ran into plenty of difficulties on their own patch, suffering four defeats in seven top-flight fixtures, so they have little reason for optimism ahead of this clash.

Over the course of their 14 top-flight away games during the current campaign, Los Angeles Galaxy have been involved in no fewer than 10 encounters containing a minimum of three successful strikes. Slightly more surprisingly, perhaps, these numbers are identical for Vancouver Whitecaps home matches in the MLS under their coach, so all the signs point towards an entertaining clash.

Los Angeles Galaxy have been involved in some pretty entertaining encounters recently, with seven of their previous eight top-flight matches producing goals at both ends of the pitch. Given that eight of the last ten Vancouver Whitecaps games at this level have followed the same pattern, it would come as a bit of a surprise were either keeper to emerge from this contest with a clean sheet.
