Managed by manager Steven Cherundolo, LAFC have shown resilience in this season. Their latest win against Minnesota United 1-0 in Major League Soccer (MLS) was achieved after Jeremy Ebobisse had scored the decisive goal, while Marlon was Man of the Match. Despite LAFC's loss of the first leg against Colorado, Aaron Long scoring into the back of the net, Cherundolo remains optimistic. He pointed out the improvement of the team and its capability to play against stronger teams, stating, "We can compete with teams like León and others from Liga MX."
Colorado Rapids
Led by Chris Armas, Colorado Rapids are enjoying a worthy unbeaten run of seven games. The opening-leg victory over LAFC was capped by a brace from Dorde Mihailovic. Nonetheless, the side suffered a blow with Reggie Cannon picking up an injury in the game. Their latest 0-0 draw against St. Louis City only serves to reinforce their defensive resilience.
Head to Head
Historically, LAFC leads narrowly with 5-4 victories and 1 draw. In point of fact, recent encounters have been fairly high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals in the last five encounters. Additionally, LAFC has dominated scoring in four out of the previous five encounters.
Expert Betting Tips
Under 11 Corners @ 1.80 Odds on Bet365:
Both sides have scored this in recent matches (LAFC 5/6, Colorado 5/5). Even if LAFC can push, a low-corner match is likely.
Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.61 Odds on Betway:
Good going as per H2H patterns (5/5), though LAFC's recent under 2.5 streak makes this a little bit risky.
Both Teams to Score (BTTS) @ 1.76 Odds on 1xbet:
Colorado loses frequently (5/5), and LAFC needs goals, so this is a good bet.
