StevieDay1983 Posted March 15, 2017 Author Share Posted March 15, 2017 It was another fascinating week of MLS action last weekend. Minnesota United finding life in the MLS hard as they were destroyed in bizarre snowy conditions against Atlanta. There are now five teams with 100% records as NY Red Bulls, Orlando City, Portland Timbers, Houston Dynamo, and San Jose Earthquakes won again. New England Revolution and LA Galaxy remain on 0 points with Minnesota. What do we think this week guys? @vasilli07, your bets came in except the New England Revolution game that was postponed. What are you eyeing up this weekend? @Icongene, spot on backing Atlanta last week. What are you going for this week? @Setup, unlucky on the BTTS bet last weekend. Are you thinking of any bets on these games? Interested to hear what others like @gogetta, @jamiedavies02, @Xcout, and @clubgowi have to say on this weekend's fixtures.

Setup Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 At first glance Colorado seems solid against Minnesota even with a handicap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the whole of last season, they only won 2 games by more than 2 goals. Every other win is by a single goal. They didn't really improve their attack this season so they are likely to struggle with goals again. They should win but don't think there is enough value in betting on them with handicap.

vasilli07 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Philly +0.5 @ 1.83(Pinnacle) Orlando started the season with a win over NYC. I'm not too sure I'm too impressed with them tbh. GK Joe Bendik had to make a couple of good saves to bail them out. Kaka remains out so Matias Perez Garcia(MPG) will take his place. As a DP during his Earthquakes days, he has performed quite poorly with only 3 goals and 8 assists since playing in MLS for the past 3 seasons. It remains to be seen if he can finally live up to his 'DP' tag. Philly has look quite decent in the 2 games they played so far. The 2 midfielders Haris Medunjanin and Derrick Jones has been rather impressive. Another impressive player Jay Simpson will miss out though because of injury. Even though Orlando will be at home, I think they will try to play counter attack again. Their weak defence need help so they won't try to be too gungho in search of a win. Philly has shown that their defence can hold up. Having putting up 2 solid performances far, I think Philly can continue their good form so far against a Orlando side without Kaka.

vasilli07 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Sporting KC @ 1.83(pinnacle) SJ Earthquakes who are 1 of the strugglers last season has surprised the league by getting 2 wins out of 2 games. Last week, they seems to be heading for defeat after conceding 2 early goals but a red card to Whitecaps gk David Ousted helped turned things round for them. Sporting KC started the season with 2 0-0 draws. Tim Melia was the MOTM for them in the 1st game as he denied DC United. Against FC Dallas(probably the best team in the league), they played abit more defensively and got a point. While SJ Earthquakes started the season with a bang, it remains to be seen if they can replicate it on the road. In the 1st 2 games, they also have a man advantage over the opposition. That probably take abit of gloss off their wins. Their away record is not that good as they have only won 1 out of their last 19 away games, losing 11 of them. Sporting KC maybe winless so far but this is the game they really be looking to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setup Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) Colorado @ 1.46 It seems Minesota will have a long season. Losing twice, conceding 11 goals, I guess they will suffer a lot this year. Colorado last season was the second best home team during the regular season, not losing even once. For me it's a no brainer. Thank you @vasilli07 for the warning regarding the handicap.
