THE PREDICTION

The home team come into this on the back of a 3-0 defeat away to Houston Dynamo in a Texan derby at the weekend. That defeat means that Austin have won just two of their last 12 matches but they have both come at home. They have managed to score nine goals in their last four home games despite winning just two of those. They now come up against a Los Angeles side that, coached by Bob Bradley, have underperformed this season and failed to click on an attacking level. LAFC defeated Real Salt Lake by three goals to two in a game that highlighted their high-scoring potential and, given the aforementioned home scoring record of Austin, over 2.5 goals could be a strong bet for this one.
