Austin FC vs Los Angeles FC Prediction & Picks - Major League Soccer
by Stephen Abiola in Major League Soccer Picks
After a 5-1 blowout loss in the hands of Real Salt Lake, Austin FC travel to Colorado before facing the in-form LAFC on Wednesday night. The Saturday match highlighted Austin’s defensive frailties, which saw them trail 4-0 at halftime. They now have a -4 goal difference after conceding 25 and scoring 21 throughout the campaign. Los Angeles, on the other hand, is 3 points behind Western Conference leaders, Real Salt Lake, after leaving it late to beat Dallas 1-0. They are now on a six-game winning streak, thanks to their solid defensive record of conceding 19 goals. Only Houston Dynamo has a better record of allowing 18 goals. Winning their extra match against Austin could see LAFC grab the top position in the Western Conference standings.
