Los Angeles vs Seattle Seawolves Prediction: Angeles to post another strong performance

The StubHub Center will host the round 7 Major League Rugby encounter between Los Angeles and the Seattle Seawolves. Heading into this game, the visitors are considered significant favorites to win. However, can the hosts rise to the occasion and respond with a strong performance?

Los Angeles is coming off a draw with Old Glory DC, ending in a 22-22 stalemate. As they prepare for their upcoming match, they'll be aiming for a better performance. During the previous game, Los Angeles found themselves trailing at halftime, with their opponent leading by 14 points to their own ten. However, an improved second-half display saw Los Angeles scoring 12 points while limiting their opponent to just 8.

Reviewing their performance in the first five league games of the season, Los Angeles has only managed to secure one victory, with one draw and the remaining games resulting in defeats.

The Seattle Seawolves have had an impressive start to the season, securing five wins out of their first six games. As they head into their next encounter, they'll aim to maintain their momentum. In their recent match, the Seawolves faced the Dallas Jackals at home and secured a narrow victory with a score of 34-32. Throughout the season, they've also notched wins against teams like the San Diego Legion, Miami Sharks, and Utah Warriors. Their only loss came in a close match against the Houston SaberCats, where they were defeated 40-42.

Currently, the Seattle Seawolves have accumulated 24 points from their six games, placing them level with the first-placed Houston SaberCats in the standings.

Los Angeles has shown improvement in their last two league games, which will undoubtedly boost their confidence heading into this match. Meanwhile, the Seattle Seawolves have been consistently strong and are determined to secure a spot in the playoffs. Despite this, Los Angeles is a formidable team, and I believe they won't concede easily. Therefore, I expect them to cover the odds in this matchup.
