MLS 2019 – Sunday 31st March Matches Betting Preview

The MLS weekend is rounded off by two matches in the competition on Sunday night as a clash in both Conferences completes what has been another high scoring and relatively exciting weekend in the leading American league.

The first month of the campaign ends with these two matches with four big sides on show on what will hopefully be a decent evening of football for those of us in the UK to enjoy. The first match is live on TV for those on this side of the pond with many streams offering up the other game.

Orlando City vs DC United (23.30)

The first match of the night comes from Florida as Orlando City look to build on their win over the New York Red Bulls when they go up against one of the better teams in the early stages of the campaign in the form of DC United.

Orlando did well to overcome the Red Bulls in their previous game but they caught the New York outfit on an indifferent day and even then there was little convincing about them. I would need to see them perform better before I trust them but there is always the chance that a win will have boosted their confidence. DC United have looked very good this term with a couple of good home wins and an away draw and they are yet to concede a single goal this season.

I expected an improvement from Orlando prior to the season beginning but in truth it has been much of the same from them. I don’t think their formation or selected personnel is right and given their lack of creativity I don’t see them winning this. DC United are solid at the back and you’ve got to think the likes of Rodriguez, Arriola, Rooney and Acosta will open up this Orlando side and so I’m with DCU on the draw no bet line.

Los Angeles Galaxy vs Portland Timbers (02.00)

The second match of the night comes from the Western Conference as Los Angeles Galaxy go up against the Portland Timbers in a match which sees two of the higher profile sides in the league taking each other one.

Galaxy have begun the season fairly well, results wise at least, although I don’t think they have played as true as the eventual outcomes have suggested. One thing which nobody can deny is that Portland Timbers have been very ordinary thus far. Whether that is a hangover from losing in the MLS Cup Final last term only they will know but they certainly need a dramatic improvement pretty soon.

I’m not sure I trust LA Galaxy. Had this match been last week I might have done but the Portland Timbers have had enough time now to take stock of where they are and rectify what has been going wrong and as such I’m expecting a much better performance from them. They are missing their regular centre-back though and Galaxy are pretty open themselves so perhaps the best way of playing this one is over 3.25 goals.
