St. Louis City vs Los Angeles FC Prediction & Betting Tips (16 May)

It would be fair to say that Los Angeles FC have been struggling on their top-flight travels of late, with their current run of 12 consecutive defeats forming part of a 13-match winless sequence. St. Louis City, meanwhile, have enjoyed 15 wins in 19 home games at this level of late, plus confidence should be high after starting the season with a victory.

Since drawing nil in this very fixture all the way back this year, Los Angeles FC have embarked upon a 29-match run of avoiding goalless draws in the MLS away games. As for St. Louis City, just one of their last 19 home fixtures at this level has ended without a goal being scored, so at least one of the two keepers should be picking the ball out of the net.

The net has bulged at both ends in each of the previous seven St. Louis City matches at the top table of the MLS, so St. Louis City certainly cannot be accused of playing boring stuff. Given that this has also been the case in ten of the most recent 15 MLS games involving Los Angeles FC, more of the same is expected in this clash.
