Austin FC vs Los Angeles FC Prediction & Betting Tips - Major League Soccer
by Joseph King | in Major League Soccer Prediction
A rematch of the 2022 Western Conference finals sees 10th-place Austin FC hosting third-place LAFC with only two matches remaining in the regular season. It’s been a tough season for Austin as they’ve experienced a sobering wake up call following their dream sophomore season last year. The Verde and Black finished second in the Western Conference last season and made it to the Conference Finals before losing to their opponents today. They now face the possibility of missing out on the playoffs completely as they trail ninth-place Dallas by three points. With Dallas having a game in hand advantage, Austin will have to win their remaining two games and hope for some help along the way. They finally put an end to their winless run against DC United on Wednesday, securing a 3-0 home victory. They’ll now look to keep that same momentum going as they search for back-to-back home league wins for only the second time this season.
LAFC are also having a bumpy 2023 season following their historic MLS Cup and Supporters’ Shield double last season. The team just hasn’t looked quite the same all year, although there still exists a sense that they’ll be able to ‘turn it on’ when needed. Their last result might lend some credence to that belief as they smashed Minnesota at home for a 5-1 win. It was arguably the Black and Gold’s best performance of the season as they looked simply irresistible going forward. Denis Bouanga scored three and LAFC created an incredible nine clear cut chances. However, they’ve also shown periods where they’ve struggled for consistency, especially when playing away from home. For example, the 5-1 win over Minnesota was only the team’s second in the previous nine matches across all competitions. LAFC trail second-place Seattle by just a single point but also lead sixth-place Houston by only three.

Our Austin FC vs Los Angeles FC Prediction
There’s certainly still some bad blood from the Austin players after they were denied a spot in the MLS Cup final last year by their opponents. In addition to fighting for their playoff lives, they'd like nothing better than to get one over on the defending champions. Austin should play with the handbrake off so to speak as they simply must take six points from their final two matches. LAFC, meanwhile, should be able to carry over some of that positive attacking momentum from their midweek showing into the weekend. Expect a back-and-forth game here with each side getting their share of chances. Our Austin vs LAFC prediction is for both teams to score + over 2.5 goals.
