Our prediction for this MLS match:
Vancouver Whitecaps and Los Angeles FC go head to head at BC Place in a highly-anticipated MLS game. The Canadian outfit failed to win the previous three league fixtures, with the team obviously struggling in front of goal. Vancouver are eager to give fans something to cheer about, and we predict that they will leave their hearts on the field in Saturday’s clash. Both Cristian Gutierrez and Thomas Hasal are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
Los Angeles FC, on the other hand, proved their worth in a 3-1 win over Dallas, with Cristian Arango extending his goal-scoring run. Los Angeles are more of a team than Vancouver, and we predict that Carlos Vela and Co. are going to give fans yet another reason for celebration. Both Julian Gaines and Erik Duenas are out of contention with injuries, speaking of the away side.
Highlighted Player (Carlos Vela):
Over the years Carlos Vela has established himself as one of best Mexican players. Vela was born in Cancun, Mexico, on March 1, 1989 and he played for Guadalajara before joining Arsenal youth school in 2005. The pacey left-footed winger played only 29 games for the Gunners in the Premier League before signing a deal with Real Sociedad.
Carlos Vela played for the likes of Celta Vigo, Salamanca, Osasuna and WBA on loan as well before joining the Basque outfit. Nowadays, the Mexican forward is a Los Angeles FC player and it has to be noted that he scored 14 goals in 29 appearances for the club in the 2018 MLS Season. He is naturally gifted player, quick, intelligent and with very good technique.
Carlos Vela did well to win two CONCACAF Gold Cups with Mexico national football team (2009, 2015) and he was named Real Sociedad player of the year in the 2011/2012 and the 2013/2014 seasons. His main position is right winger, but he is used as a second striker and a centre-forward as well.
