LA Galaxy vs Sporting Kansas City Predictions

LA Galaxy lost again in midweek when they made the trip to Colorado Rapids, while Sporting KC went down via the same 2-1 scoreline away at in-form Portland Timbers and both sides will be itching to return to winning ways on Monday night.

All of the stats suggest that a double chance bet on Sporting KC is the way to go on Monday dues to LA Galaxy’s poor run of form and dire recent record against their guests.

Sporting KC have only lost one of their last nine matches against LA Galaxy, spanning back to 2015. Four of the pairs’ last eight meetings have ended in draws and both teams scored and over 2.5 goals were produced in three of the duos’ last six encounters, which plays part of the reasoning into our prediction for Monday’s match to end 2-2.

The form of both clubs heading into Monday’s match also points heavily towards Sporting KC picking up some kind of result, because LA Galaxy have only won one of their last six matches in all competitions and Sporting KC have won three of their last four in the MLS. LA Galaxy have drawn two of their last five matches, including their last home game against Seattle Sounders which ended 2-2 and Sporting KC have only won two of their last five away games, which is why we’re leaning towards a draw rather than a win for the visitors on Monday.

We’re expecting a few goals to be scored and for Monday’s match to provide lots of entertainment, as both teams scored and over 2.5 goals were produced in LA Galaxy’s last five matches as well as in three of Sporting KC’s last six matches, and that adds weight to our prediction of a 2-2 draw between the pair.

We’re confident that a double chance bet on Sporting KC will payout on Monday and have predicted a final scoreline of 2-2. Sporting KC have a great recent record against LA Galaxy in which they are unbeaten in the pairs last nine encounters and they head into the match as the clear form favourites. However, the visitors poor run of form on the road of late is why we can’t back an outright win for Sporting KC on Monday and makes the double chance bet far more sensible and practical.
