Prediction

Los Angeles FC 3, Orlando City SC 1

Moneyline (ML)

LAFC (-121) stormed through the group stages with 11 goals, and carried that momentum into the Round of 16 with a 4-1 whitewashing of the Seattle Sounders Tuesday. LAFC has a ton of offensive firepower, and it will likely be too much for Orlando City SC (+270) to handle. OCSC showed Montreal the door on Saturday, winning 1-0 in its Round of 16 battle, but it has managed to find the back of the net just two times in the past two outings. Orlando City SC doesn’t have the up-tempo offense to hang with LAFC.

A winning $10 wager on Orlando City SC (+270) to win outright nets a profit of $27. A $10 wager on Montreal (-121) to win would net a profit of $8.26, while a Draw or Tie (+333) would fetch a $33.30 profit.

Over/Under (O/U)

OVER 3.5 (+110) is a solid play, as LAFC has the potential to take care of this Over all by itself. OCSC plays a bit more slowly for the liking of Over bettors, but it might have to speed it up if it gets itself into an early hole. Orlando isn’t a great team finishing scoring chances or battling it out in the air.
