Main Match Prediction

The two MLS sides can combine to score three goals or more. We are therefore going to play Over 2.5 Goals at -164 in the expectation that we can land a solid return if our prediction is correct.

Key stats supporting our main match prediction (league matches):

  • The 2.5 line has been covered in 4 of the last 5 Austin games.
  • The 2.5 line has been covered in 8 of the last 10 Austin games.
  • The 2.5 line has been covered in the last 3 Austin games at home.
  • The 2.5 line has been covered in the last 4 Philadelphia games on the road.
  • The 2.5 line has been covered in 8 of the last 10 Philadelphia games on the road.
  • The 2.5 line has been covered in 11 of the last 16 Philadelphia games on the road.

We study the MLS form as a first port of call and also make sure we’re across any injuries before making our football predictions. Then it’s a case of understanding the sort of narrative that the stats provide.

Over 2.5 Probability

According to the top bookies, our pick has a 62.1% chance of landing a return. Taking all factors into consideration, our tipsters think there’s a stronger chance of success and estimate the probability to be closer to 70%. It’s why we think it’s worth placing this bet.
