After claiming two vital wins, pushing themselves into the all-important postseason places, the Colorado Rapids will be hoping to make it three wins from three on Wednesday evening. They're up against LAFC in front of a home crowd at Dick's Sporting Goods Park, where they've not conceded a goal in three. The visitors will be looking to bounce back after losing at home to San Diego (without scoring) at the weekend.
From a betting point of view, those looking for a slice of the value cake should consider 'Under 2.5 Goals', which really does look generously priced at odds of +120. Given what we've seen from the pair in recent times, +100 would be a much fairer reflection of things. After all, both the hosts and the visitors have been involved in plenty of low-scoring games of late, with neither flourishing in the final third at present.

Our Colorado Rapids vs Los Angeles FC Prediction
The fact that neither team is doing too much in the final third is not easy to ignore, especially when a relatively low-scoring game is so leniently priced. The visitors are not thriving offensively right now, scoring no more than one goal in any of their last five games. Their last two MLS games have ended 1-1 and 0-1.
Throw into the mix that only four goals have been scored in Colorado's last three games at home, with the Rapids recording three clean sheets during that time, and 'Under 2.5 Goals' really should be priced less generously. Anything above +100 and we're getting value for money here.
Our Colorado Rapids vs LAFC Pick: Under 2.5 Goals.
