Los Angeles Galaxy v Portland Timbers : Major League Soccer match betting preview, prediction and odds

Thu 15th Oct, 03:30 BST, Dignity Health Sports Park, Carson

Greg Vanney's Los Angeles Galaxy side are on home soil in the Major League Soccer on Thursday morning, as Martí Cifuentes Corvillo's Portland Timbers travel to the Dignity Health Sports Park. We want you to make a smart bet on this match, so we've searched our 20+ year database and pulled out the stats that matter the most. Head-to-head and recent form are included, and it all goes into our algorithmic predictions. Odds are there to ensure you get the best price.


Best Tip: Both teams to score

We have a pair of effective, attacking sides going head-to-head and, as such, we are predicting both of them to score at least 1 goal during the 90 mins. Can respective bosses Greg Vanney or Martí Cifuentes Corvillo deliver a defensive plan that will shut out the opposition? Latest form stats and historical head-to-heads, as well as the latest odds from the bookies, do not suggest so.

Los Angeles Galaxy's fans will be hoping for goals on Thursday morning, not least because Portland Timbers have conceded in each of their last 16 Major League Soccer games. A PG of 1.7 for G. Vanney's side suggests that run should continue.
