MLS Western Conference leaders Vancouver Whitecaps travel to face second-from-bottom Austin FC. Neither side are in particularly good form right now. St Louis Blues are creeping up on the Caps, both in the Western Conference and in the overall standings. If the Whitecaps don't start picking up wins soon, they'll find themselves at risk of dropping out of the CONCACAF Champions Cup qualifying playoffs altogether. Austin have had a poor season, winning just seven times in MLS so far. If Austin could win this match, though, they could leapfrog Minnesota United, San Diego, Real Salt Lake and Portland Timbers and challenge for a spot in the wild card round. 

These sides have similar records across their last six games. Both have won just one of their last six, losing twice and drawing on three occasions. Austin's sole win in that run actually came against the Caps, with a 2-1 victory at BC Place. 

The Whitecaps are the clear favorites to beat The Verde and Black. We're not so sure, though. For our prediction, we think Austin have a reasonable chance of getting something from this game, particularly with the poor form the Caps have shown in recent weeks.

Our Austin FC vs Vancouver Whitecaps Prediction

It's easy to see why the Caps are favorites to win this one. However, their form has been pretty shoddy of late. That, coupled with their defeat to Austin in September, makes us think The Verde and Black could take at least a point from this game.

Our prediction for Austin FC vs Vancouver Whitecaps is: Austin Double Chance
