Match Prediction- Los Angeles FC vs Los Angeles Galaxy Betting Tips and Match Prediction
After three successive MLS defeats, Minnesota have since claimed three consecutive victories against LA Galaxy, Real Salt Lake and Vancouver Whitecaps, scoring three goals in each game. That result has seen Adrian Heath’s side climb into the playoffs and up to sixth in the Western Conference, although they are still some way off the summit as they are 12 points behind league leaders Los Angeles FC.
Minnesota experienced contrasting results against Sporting Kansas City within a three-month period in 2021. A goalless draw on home soil, was followed by a heavy 4-0 away defeat before they bounced back with a 2-1 home win in their most recent encounter against them. Victory at Allianz Field on Thursday would see them claim three successive home wins in MLS for the first time since the summer of last year.

After suffering back-to-back defeats without scoring against Seattle Sounders and New York Red Bulls, Sporting Kansas City returned to winning ways with a 2-1 victory away against Montreal CF last weekend. Peter Vermes’s side have climbed off the foot of the Western Conference and up to 13th place, but they are still eight points behind the playoff positions, albeit with 14 games still remaining.
Kansas City have struggled defensively for some time in MLS, keeping only two clean sheets in their last 15 league matches and they have conceded a total of 34 goals this season; only basement club San Jose Earthquakes (37) have conceded more in the Western Conference so far this term. The Wizards head into Thursday’s contest having won only one of their 10 away encounters against Minnesota across all competitions, a 2-1 league win in August 2020.

Both sides will be looking to build on their victories last weekend, with Minnesota seeking to secure their fourth successive MLS victory and climb into the top three of the Western Conference.
Considering the form the hosts will take into Thursday’s game and their superior home record against Kansas City, we feel that the Loons will come away with all three points at Allianz Field.
Sporting Kansas City 0-2 Minnesota United, as predicted by us.
