Vancouver Whitecaps St. Louis City betting prediction

The home team comes to this stage of the MLS (Regular Season) after having eliminated Portland Timbers with a away loss by (2‑0) in the previous round. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 2 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 19 goals scored and 24 conceded; against 3 wins, 6 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 17 goals scored and 19 conceded. For the league, Whitecaps won 11 points out of 24 possible points, after 3 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses in the last 8 home matches. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (3 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 6 of the last 8 matches for this competition have ended with Over 2,5 goals. In 18 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 8 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 10 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 5 of their 13 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

The two consecutive defeats at this point should serve as a warning sign for the Whitecaps team. Although they are still fighting for a place in the playoffs this season, they know they cannot continue stumbling in Major League Soccer. At home, in front of their fans, they should seek victory in this game against the St. Louis City team.
