Our prediction for this MLS match:
Sunday’s football game at Q2 Stadium pits together Austin FC and St Louis City, the two teams who meet for the third time in the Major League Soccer. Austin defended well in a goalless draw with Seattle Sounders, but they need to adopt an attack-minded approach against St Louis City if they are to grab their first triumph of the process. Forward Ethan Finlay is pushing for a recall to the starting XI, while all Brendan Hines-Ike, Leo Vaisanen, and Sebastian Driussi remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Bradley Carnell’s troops, on the other hand, did well to beat New York City 2-0 in front of home fans at the weekend and given Austin’s modest performance against Seattle, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visiting team. Barring any fresh injury worries, Bradley Carnell is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated the Blue Pigeons.
