CITY Looks To Extend Winning Streak
St. Louis CITY SC goes for their third straight win when they host LAFC on Saturday night at Energizer Park.
CITY won back-to-back road games at Montreal and San Jose, and now they return home where they have a record of 3W-3L-2D under interim manager David Critchley.
CITY In Good Scoring Form
CITY has been in good offensive form for quite a while now. They have found the back of the net at least once in 8 consecutive matches, and they are averaging exactly 2 goals scored per game during that span.
Overall in the 16 matches with Critchley at the helm, CITY is averaging 1.75 goals scored per game, and those matches have seen an average of 3.75 total goals scored.
LAFC On Fire
LAFC comes into this match in 4th place in the Western Conference, and they are surging down the stretch with 3 straight wins. LAFC has scored exactly 4 goals in each of those 3 games, and they lead the conference with 57 goals scored.
LAFC and CITY played a high-scoring affair earlier this season with a 2-2 draw in Los Angeles back on April 27th.
My Pick
This game has goalfest written all over it. LAFC is scoring for fun right now, so I want to back them specifically.
I recommend a Same Game Parlay on DraftKings with LAFC to go over their team total of 1.5 goals and for there to be over 2.5 goals in the game. I think there’s a very good chance LAFC scores at least 3 and cashes this bet on their own.
But even if they only manage to score twice, I expect CITY to contribute to the scoring and get this bet home. It has been much more entertaining watching this team since Critchley took over, and I expect another fun watch on Saturday night.
Pick: Same Game Parlay priced at -120 on DraftKings - LAFC over 1.5 total goals AND Over 2.5 total goals in the game (bet to -130)
