Nashville vs. Los Angeles: preview and betting tips

The highlight of Monday’s soccer schedule will be a clash between the third team in MLS and the second. Nashville will welcome Los Angeles to their home ground and if they want to think about second place, they have to win. What to expect from the match?

Nashville is in the top three of the MLS Western Conference, but its current form is not good. It has won only two of the last six rounds and is only two points behind third-placed Dallas.

Los Angeles, on the other hand, has won three of the last four rounds and remains in second place in the playoffs. They are one point behind first place Austin and have one game in hand.

The home team relies on the goals of offensive midfielder Hany Mukhtar, who has scored 14 times and assisted four times. Experienced spearhead striker C.J. Sapong has scored six goals and assisted on four others.

Cristian Arango is dragging the visitors, the Colombian playmaker has hit ten times and assisted once. Central midfielder Ryan Hollingshead is also doing well, scoring five goals and assisting on two.

Nashville has struggled offensively, scoring more than once in only one of its last seven games.

Los Angeles, on the other hand, has the league’s second-best offense, scoring more than once in four of its last six games.

Given Los Angeles’ shooting form, I think the visitors will not lose.
