MLS side, Los Angeles FC, will host Alajuelense from Costa Rica in the Round of 16 in the 2026 CONCACAF Champions Cup on Tuesday night. LAFC have started this season with a bang after picking up maximum points in their three league assignments. They were also on fire in their first-round matchup, defeating Real España from Honduras 7-1 on aggregate. It has been a great start for Marc Dos Santos and his technical team.
Like their hosts on Tuesday, Liga Deportiva Alajuelense has also been in great form this season. They sit atop the Costa Rican Primera Division with 40 points, 16 points ahead of second-placed Deportivo Saprissa. Alajuelense defeated San Carlos 2-0 on Saturday night to cement their top spot in the Clausura. They’re definitely a solid side that can cause problems for LAFC in this two-legged tie.

Our Los Angeles FC vs Liga Deportiva Alajuelense Prediction
This will be an interesting matchup between two in-form sides. LAFC will enter this fixture as favorites to win and carry that advantage into the second leg. Marc Dos Santos’ footprint is already clear in the team, especially their excellent defensive organization. LAFC have conceded just a single goal in their last five matches, which includes a 3-0 win over the tournament’s favorites, Inter Miami. However, they must not underestimate Alajuelense, who have been overwhelming their opponents this season. We still think LAFC’s superior squad depth and home advantage will favor them in a 2-0 win on Tuesday night.
Our prediction for Los Angeles FC vs Alajuelense: Over 1.5 goals.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
