Los Angeles FC will look to retain third place in the standings when they face New York Red Bulls, with the hosts desperate to end a five-game winless run. The Black and Gold were held to a 2-2 draw by Real Salt Lake at the weekend and have won only 20% of their last 10 matches. They have been more solid defensively at home, conceding just 0.80 goals per game, while Igor Jesus, Tillman and Hasal are injured and Ryan Porteous is a major doubt.
The Metros, meanwhile, are hoping to climb into the playoff places after playing out a goalless draw with Seattle. Ronald Donkor is suspended, while New York have won just 20% of their last 10 games. However, both teams have scored in 70% of those matches, and the Red Bulls have conceded 1.60 goals per game. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team.
As LAFC have won 50% of the four previous H2H clashes, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (three of the four H2H meetings produced at least three goals).
This MLS match will be played on Thursday 10 September 2026 at 03:30.
