LA Galaxy Portland Timbers betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

We expect a balanced match between these two teams. Despite Galaxy has the home advantage, the odds in favour of the home team seem unreal, since the opponent is going through a better moment, so we believe a bet with Asian handicap +0.5 in favour of the away team is of good value.

Preview
This Wednesday, Los Angeles Galaxy and Portland Timbers face at the Stubhub Center, in California, in a match for the 17th round of the 2015 Major League Soccer. This is a faceoff between two teams that have had good results in the West Conference so far. Angeles Galaxy is in the 4th position, with 25 points in 18 matches, but has had a negative moment. But in the last round they recovered and won. Portland Timbers is in an excellent moment this season and is currently in the 3rd position, with the same 25 points, but in 16 matches. These two teams have already played for the MLS this season, in a match that ended in a 2-2 draw.

Analysis Galaxy

The current MLS Champions have had a good season so far, which has alternated between positive and negative sequences, though. They register two negative sequences of 5 and 4 matches with no wins. But they also have positive sequences in home matches, since they haven’t won an away match yet.
 
Galaxy is one of the best teams of the league in home matches and have had a great performance in the last round. At the Stubhub Center, Galaxy dominated and won with a convincing 5-1 final score.

In the first rounds the team has suffered due to injuries and players that were unavailable because they were representing their national teams. But they now have almost all players available. Steven Gerrard is expected to arrive in July, so LA is likely to improve even more soon. But in this match they face a competitive Timbers, so they wish they can maintain the same level they presented in the last round. 

Confirmed Lineup: Jaime Penedo, Dan Gargan, Robbie Rogers, Omar Gonzalez, Adolph DeLaGarza, Juninho, Stefan Ishizaki, Sebastian Lletget, Baggio Husidić, Gyasi Zardes.
Coach: R. Keane.

Analysis Portland

Last season Portland Timbers almost got access to the playoffs, but failed by one point. This year they didn’t start the season all that well and won their first match in the 5th round. After that they have had a few irregular results, but in the last rounds they have improved substantially. They arrive at this match with a sequence of 4 consecutive wins, so they have improved their position in the table.
 
Timbers’s best results in away matches were against teams bellow their position in the table, so they have the opportunity to beat one such team again. They are the second best defence of the league and even in away matches they don’t usually concede many goals. They wish to take advantage of that strength to win against Galaxy.

Confirmed Lineup: Adam Kwarasey, Alvas Powell, Jorge Villafaña, Nat Borchers, Liam Ridgewell, Jack Jewsbury, Darlington Nagbe, Diego Chará, Diego Valeri, Maximiliano Urruti, Rodney Wallace.
