Saturday's Major League Soccer menu begins with a starter of Austin vs LA Galaxy, which will take place at Q2 Stadium, where the hosts will be looking to bounce back after receiving something of a heavy blow away to the Vancuover Whitecaps last weekend, losing by five goals to zero. Such an effort will have disappointed Nico Estevez, who had previously seen his team go unbeaten in four games. Thankfully, the hosts know how to tussle in their own backyard, but after such a hefty loss, they may not be feeling super confident.
We all know that it's been a weak start to the new campaign for the 2024 MLS Cup winners, but the Galaxy did show signs of life last weekend, steadying themselves after two defeats to tie with the Houston Dynamo. We haven't yet seen Greg Vanney's men at their brilliant best, but they've started to score more goals in recent games, so it may not long before they turn things around. Let's see what they can conjur here.

Our Austin FC vs Los Angeles Galaxy Prediction
OK, sure, the visitors havent really clicked into gear yet this season, that much is clear, while Gabriel Pec hasn't exactly dazzled in a scoring sense, but the Brazilian continues to look dangerous, while he's clearly hungry for goals, shooting with serious regularity. Against an Austin side that struggled massively to keep things tight last time out and may not be feeling too confident after a heavy defeat, the visiting forward looks a decent bet to find the net, especially all the time generous-looking odds of +300 are available. Our Austin vs LA Galaxy Pick: Gabriel Pec to Score.
