MLS Matchday Preview – Betting Lines and Free Picks

The MLS will be busy this Saturday, July 9th, as we will have a delightful match-day with 11 games to be played all over the evening.

LAFC is keeping ahead with the most points in the league, but Austin, NY Red Bulls, and Philadelphia are closing the gap on the leaders.

We’ll be taking a look at some of the most anticipated match-ups of the day, and let you know what our picks are for each of the games.

Draw Offs: +270

Where Can I Watch? ESPN+

Austin currently holds 2nd place in the Western Conference, with 10 wins, 4 draws, and 4 losses.

Atlanta United is currently at 11th in the Eastern Conference, having 5 wins, 5 draws, and 7 losses as of this moment.

It will be a tough challenge for Atlanta to even draw, as Austin has been a dominant team, scoring a ton more than they have conceded. 

Our pick is on Austin to win this game by 2-0.

MLS Matchday Preview, July 9th – Real Salt Lake vs. Colorado – Betting Odds & Free Pick – Info

When: Saturday, July 9th, 10:00 pm ET

Moneyline Odds: Real Salt Lake -111 / Colorado Rapids +290

Draw Offs: +250

Where Can I Watch? ESPN +

Real Salt Lake is currently 3rd on the Western Conference, coming in with 8 wins, 5 draws, and 5 losses so far.

They may remain close to the top, but they need to pick up the pace before they are left behind.

They face the Colorado Rapids, who are 12th in the western conference and have won 5, drawn 4, and lost 8 matches.

It will be a good time for Salt Lake to show its strength and close the distance to the top.

We pick Real Salt Lake as the winners, in a 1-0 victory

MLS Matchday Preview, July 9th – Montreal vs. Sporting KC– Betting Odds & Free Pick – Info

When: Saturday, July 9th, 07:30 pm ET

Moneyline Odds: Montreal -126 / Sporting KC +310

Draw Offs: +270

Where Can I Watch? ESPN +

Montreal is going through the season in a kill-or-be-killed state of mind, landing in 3rd place in the eastern conference with 9 wins, 2 draws, and 7 losses.

They are going all-in on aggressive fashion, and it has worked well so far, but it is not the most efficient path.

Their opponents though, are Sporting KC, who are going through a disastrous season with 4 wins, 4 ties, and 11 losses.

We may believe that Montreal’s approach is kind of reckless, but it will simply run over Sporting KC, and we expect a Montreal victory 2-0
