Following a couple of poor results, it was back to winning ways for La Galaxy last time out, with the men from Dignity Health Sports Park returning from Minnesota with all three points courtesy of a 2-3 win. Can they follow up by securing a third win in their last four at home? The Rapids will turn up in Los Angeles looking for a first win in six away games.
Having recently regained full fitness, this could be the first game that João Klauss starts since April, and if that's the case, it's well worth betting on the Brazilian marksman to find the net. Klauss came off the bench to notch last time out, doing so with aplomb, and off the back of that effort, against a team that doesn't often keep it tight on the road, he looks too leniently priced to find the net.

Our Los Angeles Galaxy vs Colorado Rapids Prediction
Given their struggles of late, everyone involved with the Los Angeles Galaxy will have been delighted to see João Klauss return recently. The Brazilian is a man who knows how to score goals and he's proven at this level, that's for sure. Off the bench last time out, he looked raring to go, getting himself into many dangerous positions, finding the net with one of his four shots.
As a man who averages 0.90 goals per 90 minutes in Major League Soccer this season, scoring six goals in just ten appearances, he really should be priced shorter than -185 to notch here. Odds of +150 would be much fairer. Take the early value while it lasts.
