LAFC vs Vancouver Whitecaps Preview & Picks 


LAFC come into this one on the back of a three-game unbeaten run that was extended by a 1-1 draw with the Vancouver Whitecaps last week. 

The Vancouver Whitecaps have been good of late, with a run of five games without a defeat extended by their 1-1 draw with LAFC. 

  • LAFC are unbeaten in their last three (W2, D1)
  • LAFC have scored four goals or more in two of their last three 
  • The Whitecaps are unbeaten in their last five (D4, W1)
  • Vancouver have seen two goals or less scored in their last two 

Head-To-Head


The Whitecaps have managed to stay unbeaten against LAFC this term, taking a point from them when they hosted, while they won 3-2 when they were the travelling side. In their last six meetings, the Whitecaps have two wins, LAFC have won three times and there has been one draw. 

LAFC Form 


LAFC saw a two-match winning run come to an end last week as they failed to battle to all the points against Vancouver Whitecaps. 

This 1-1 draw will have a psychological impact on LAFC heading into this one, although they will point to having home advantage for their latest meeting. The worry for LAFC will be that they have lost one of their last two at home. 

LAFC have looked very good this season, but exploits inside the regular season often mean little at this stage of the season. They have to do the simple things well as they look to ensure they are in contention later in the playoffs. 

Vancouver Whitecaps Form 


The Vancouver Whitecaps head into this one on the back of a five-game unbeaten run that sees them coming into the playoffs as genuine contenders. 

The Whitecaps may be unbeaten in their last five, but they drawn their last two, while they have only scored once across these two draws. Positively, they have only conceded once in their last three, but they need to add goals to their game. 

If the Whitecaps are to win this one, it would be a real shock. LAFC have looked destined to battle in the latter stages of the playoffs, meaning Vancouver will have to be at their best to win this one. 

Verdict

I am backing under 2.5 goals to be scored in this one as LAFC battle to a crucial win.
