Seattle Sounders vs Los Angeles Galaxy Prediction & Betting Tips (6 May)

Seattle Sounders last graced the top-flight, ending that campaign by losing eight of their last 12 matches of the regular season, so a return to this level could represent a significant step up in class. Los Angeles Galaxy are probably not the opponents that they would have chosen to face, with Seattle Sounders boasting eight wins from ten games of late.

Over the course of their previous 21 home games at this level, Seattle Sounders have been involved in just a single goalless draw, and eight goals were shared when they last played host to Los Angeles Galaxy. Speaking of the visitors, 21 of their most recent 21 matches in the MLS have served up over 2.5 goals, so any deviation from this script would have to be seen as surprising.

Somewhat incredibly, 21 of the previous 21 MLS fixtures involving Seattle Sounders have seen the net bulge at both ends, and this includes a run of ten consecutive home matches in which this has been the case. Although Los Angeles Galaxy cannot compete with these numbers, it should still be pointed out that they have both scored and conceded in ten of their last 14 away games.
