Minnesota United vs. LAFC Odds
Game Preview
The Gooners won five games in a row, 4 of MLS fixtures and one US Open Cup game. Their defense has been impressive lately, keeping three clean sheets in the most recent events.
Cameron Knowles’ boys built a stronghold in Minneapolis where they haven’t lost since late September, posting five wins and one tie. Furthermore, they’ve allowed goals in just one game during that period.
Hugo Lloris comes up big for @LAFC!

As for the guests, after a strong start, Marc Dos Santos and his crew slowed down pretty badly. The black and gold have been without a triumph for the last 4 meetings, posting two ties and losses.
It’s the same when it comes to road games. Two ties and a loss is LAFC’s record over the previous three outings.
Minnesota United vs. LAFC Head to Head
It’s interesting that the previous 4 encounters between these two West Conference foes saw under 2.5 goals. The most recent clash was in July last year when LAFC triumphed on the road, 0-1.
Minnesota United vs. LAFC Predictions
The hosts are in excellent shape, while on the other hand, LAFC faces a sort of crisis, which is why we pick the home team to win. Home-field edge, better form, and a shaky rival are all factors that favor hosts.
