Sporting Kansas City vs. Vancouver Whitecaps: MLS odds, betting lines and picks

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Saturday at 9:30 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Sporting Kansas City 4, Vancouver Whitecaps 1

Moneyline (ML)

SPORTING KANSAS CITY (-200) is a bit expensive at this price, but there is no way they’re falling to the Whitecaps (+475). SKC has posted a 4-0-1 mark over their past five meetings with Vancouver across all competitions, outscoring the ‘Caps by a 17-3 margin. Sporting has posted at least three goals in four of those outings, including a 3-1 win before the pause button was pressed back on March 1. In addition, betting SPORTING KC TO WIN AND BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE (+180) is a very nice value as well.

A winning $10 wager on Sporting Kansas City (-200) to win outright nets a profit of $5. A $10 wager on Vancouver (+475) to win would net a profit of $47.50, while a Draw or Tie (+375) would fetch a $37.50 profit.

Over/Under (O/U)

OVER 3.5 (+135) should be a pretty solid value here on the alternate line, as Sporting Kansas City has the offensive firepower to take care of the total all on their own. As mentioned above, they have netted at least three goals in four of the previous five meetings against Vancouver.

Toronto FC vs. New York City FC: MLS odds, betting lines and picks

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Saturday at 9:15 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Toronto FC 3, New York City 1

Moneyline (ML)

TORONTO FC (+125) went unbeaten in Group C play, winning a match and picking up two draws. They managed to net six goals with a plus-1 goal differential, just edging out New England for the top spot in the group.

Toronto’s firepower on offense will get them past NYCFC (+195).  They ended up third in Group A, scoring just two goals with a minus-2 goal differential.

A winning $10 wager on Toronto FC (+125) to win outright nets a profit of $12.50. A $10 wager on New York City FC (+195) to win would net $19.50, while a Draw or Tie (+275) would fetch a $27.50 profit.

Over/Under (O/U)

OVER 2.5 (-167) looks pretty tasty here, mainly based upon Toronto’s wide-open style of play. TFC averaged two goals per game in the group stage while yielding 1.67. If those trends continue, we’ll see at least three total goals. NYCFC’s struggling offense is the biggest concern here, but they should find a little more success against Toronto.

Philadelphia Union vs. New England Revolution: MLS odds, betting lines and picks

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Friday at 8:30 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Philadelphia Union 1, New England Revolution 0

Moneyline (ML)

PHILADELPHIA UNION (+150) is coming off a spirited 1-1 draw against Orlando City SC last time out. They’re considered one of the favorites to win this entire thing, and their most difficult matchup of the knockout stages might be right here against the New England Revolution (+150). The books are pricing this one as a coin flip, with the Draw (+260) also available if there is a tie after full time.

I am feeling the Doopers, however. Philly looked good in scratching out four goals in group play while allowing just two. They edged Inter Miami CF in a great opening game to get their juices flowing, and the Orlando match showed a lot as they netted seven out of a possible nine points in group play.

New England’s defense clamped down, yielding only one goal in three group matches, but they scored just two. The Union have more offense and that will be the difference here. Philly is 4-0-1 in the previous five battles with the Revs.

A winning $10 wager on either Philadelphia Union (+150) or New England Revolution (+150) to win outright nets a profit of $15. A $10 wager on Draw or Tie (+260) would fetch a $26 profit.

Over/Under (O/U)

UNDER 2.5 (+115) is your best bet. The Revs have looked like they’re shooting into a hockey net rather than a soccer net, and their defense is in lockdown mode. Philly is also stout defensively, so goals should be at a premium here.

MLS: LAFC vs. Portland Timbers odds, picks and best bets

Previewing Thursday’s LAFC vs. Portland Timbers sports betting odds and lines, with MLS betting picks, tips and best bets.

LAFC vs. Portland Timbers: MLS odds, betting lines and picks

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Wednesday at 6 a.m. ET.

Prediction

LAFC 3, Portland 2

Moneyline (ML)

Expect LAFC (-167) to put the peddle to the metal, just like when it routed the rival L.A. Galaxy by a 6-2 count last time out. Portland (+400) won each of its first two matches and are sitting pretty atop Group F with an invitation to the Round of 16 already extended. Look for LAFC, which has also qualified for the Round of 16, to finish up group play strong with a three-point night.

A $10 winning wager on LAFC (+167) to win outright nets a profit of $5.99. A $10 wager on Portland (+400) to win would net a profit of $40, while a Draw (+290) would fetch a $29 profit.

Over/Under (O/U)

OVER 3.5 (+105) is worth some consideration here. LAFC rolled up six goals last time out, and it has nine goals with five conceded through two matches. Portland has scored four and yielded two, and knowing it already advanced, its lack of motivation in the offensive zone is a bit worrisome for Over bettors. Still, LAFC has enough firepower to see this thing across the finish line.

Minnesota United FC vs. Colorado Rapids: MLS odds, betting lines and picks

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Wednesday at 11 p.m. ET.

Prediction

Minnesota United FC 2, Colorado Rapids 0

Moneyline (ML)

MINNESOTA UNITED FC (+115) is the play here, as Colorado (+200) has had a brutal stay in the bubble and are yet to pick up a point in two matches. In fact, the Rapids have a dismal minus-3 goal differential and enter this match knowing that they’re eliminated from Round of 16 contention, so they’re unlikely to offer a ton of resistance. Meanwhile, Minnesota enters with plenty on the line, including a potential ticket to the Round of 16 and seeding.

A winning $10 wager on Minnesota United FC (+115) returns a net profit of $11.50.

Over/Under (O/U)

UNDER 2.5 (+125) is worth a small-unit play here. The Rapids have struggled mightily on offense in this tournament. While they have conceded five goals, and that’s a bit of a concern, Minnesota has found the back of the net just twice through two matches. In addition, UNDER 2.5 goals has cashed in each of the previous three meetings between these clubs across all competitions, including a pair of 1-0 decisions in the past two matches.

Prediction

Minnesota United 2, Real Salt Lake 1

Moneyline (ML)

MINNESOTA UNITED (+150) is a slight favorite over defensive-minded Real Salt Lake (+165) in this one. United stunned Sporting KC Sunday with two goals in stoppage time in the second half, turning a 1-0 deficit into a 2-1 win. United will take that momentum and energy and parlay it into a second consecutive win in the bubble, taking a less circuitous route to a 2-1 victory this time around. If you are feeling the 2-1 exact score in favor of Minnesota, it pays +900, by the way.

A winning $10 wager on Minnesota United (+150) returns a $15 net profit. A $10 wager on Minnesota winning by the exact score of 2-1 (+900) would pay $90.

Over/Under (O/U)

The line is OVER 2.5 (-154). Over bettors were treated to an amazing finish in Minnesota’s opener, while Under bettors were shaking their heads after a monumental bad beat. Look for at least three goals in this one, as Minnesota has plenty of firepower and it is missing two key defenders.

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Friday at 6:35 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Sporting KC 2, Colorado 1

Moneyline (ML)

SPORTING KC (-110) is a rather heavy favorite despite the fact it has to go with a backup keeper with Melia serving a suspension due to a red card in Sunday’s loss to Minnesota United. GK Richard Sanchez made his debut in the opener and was shaky, at best. Sanchez should be a bit more prepared seeing as he won’t be thrust into action in an emergency this time around.

A winning $10 wager on Sporting KC (-110) returns a net profit of $9.09.

Over/Under (O/U)

OVER 2.5 (-154) is the play in this one. Colorado should be able to get at least one past Sanchez, and Sporting KC will be on a mission offensively to get rid of the bad taste from its 2-1 stunning loss to Minnesota.

Prediction

New England 3, DC United 1

Moneyline (ML)

NEW ENGLAND (+110) took care of Montreal 1-0 in the opening match, while DC United (+225) and Toronto FC played to a 2-2 draw in their opener. DC is a bit nicked up, missing some key contributors. That’s not good against a Revs side that is nearly whole. While United has posted a 2-1-2 mark in the previous five head-to-head meetings, you can expect the Revs to return the favor in this one.

A winning $10 wager on New England (+110) fetches a net profit of $11.

Over/Under (O/U)

OVER 2.5 (-150) is worth a small-unit play, as DC’s defense was a bit shaky in its 2-2 draw in the opening match. Look for New England to take advantage, and potentially take care of the Over all by itself.

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Thursday at 7:40 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Columbus 1, New York Red Bulls 1

Moneyline (ML)

Columbus (+135) coasted to a 4-0 win against FC Cincinnati in the first match of the MLS is Back Tournament, but the Crew should get much more resistance from the Red Bulls (+185), who downed a strong Atlanta United club 1-0 in their tourney opener. This will be a hard-fought defensive battle, and a scoreless draw wouldn’t be terribly shocking. Either way, the best bet here is playing the DRAW (+270), with a return of nearly three times your stake.

A winning $10 DRAW wager on the Crew and Red Bulls would net a $27 profit if they finish in a tie.

Over/Under (O/U)

UNDER 2.5 (-106) is the play. While there was a total of five goals in a 3-2 Columbus win in the last head-to-head meeting July 28, 2019, these sides each posted clean sheets in their opener of this tournament. Expect fewer scoring opportunities on Thursday night. The Crew sailed through their first match, but will get a much sterner test from the Red Bulls.

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Monday at 12:15 p.m. ET.

Prediction

Orlando City SC 2, New York City FC 1

Moneyline (ML)

ORLANDO CITY SC (+310) is the play here. While there are no fans in the stands, Orlando City is the “home” team in the Central Florida bubble. OCSC scratched out a 2-1 win against Inter Miami in the first game of the tournament last Wednesday, notching a goal at 90’+7 to stun its Sunshine State rivals and anger anyone who had an “Under” ticket. New York City FC (-118) is favored in this one, but it’s a curious line considering it has been blanked 1-0 in each of its first three matches this season. To make matters worse, Moralez went out in the opening match of the tourney with a quad injury and is out indefinitely.

A winning $10 wager on Orlando City SC (+310) to win outright nets a return profit of $31. A $10 wager on New York City FC (-118) to win would net a profit of just $8.47, while a Draw or Tie (+280) would fetch a $28 profit.

Over/Under (O/U)

OVER 2.5 (-154) has not been a frequent play in this tournament so far, and the only reason Orlando’s first match went over was the late-game heroics to sink Miami. Playing the Over in a match featuring a team with a goose egg in the “goals for” column is risky, but New York should finally find the back of the net against Orlando. Plus, OCSC showed it has a little bit of offensive punch against Miami in last week’s opener.
