One of the Major League Soccer venues to get busy on Saturday evening will be Allianz Field, where Minnesota and LAFC lock horns. This is a game between two of the better defensive units in the league, prompting us to side with a relatively low-scoring game in the early betting. To be honest, 'Under 2.5 Goals' looks generously priced at odds of +120.
After all, the hosts have been keeping regular clean sheets, while they've not scored many goals either, especially at home, where only three goals have been scored in three games this season. That's an average of just 1.00 match goal per 90 minutes at Allianz Stadium. Considering that the visitors like to keep the score down on the road, where they've only scored one goal so far, a relatively low-scoring game looks very leniently priced at the early odds.

Our Minnesota United vs Los Angeles FC Prediction
Right now, it feels like most MLS games give off a high-scoring feel, but this is not one of them. Considering that the visitors are as good as any Major League Soccer side at taking the sting out of games and keeping the score down, 'Under 2.5 Goals' look like a slightly better bet than odds of +120 would suggest.
After all, the hosts have adopted a more cautious approach in recent weeks, showing a clear preference for solidity, which is why they too have been involved in some low-scoring fixtures. This could be another.
Our Minnesota vs LAFC Pick: Under 2.5 Goals.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
