NextGOAL tip: St. Louis City -0.5 · 2 stars
St. Louis City and San Diego meet in MLS, with the hosts sitting 3rd in the table on 51 points from 32 matches, while the visitors are 13th with 35 points. The two teams need points from this game in different ways: the hosts want to finish the season strongly, while the visitors still need points to climb out of the bottom half of the table. St. Louis City have not won in 5 straight matches, but this season they are still a team that scores consistently, averaging 1.81 goals per game and conceding only 1.47 per game. San Diego are also without a win in 5 matches, but their defense is clearly leakier, conceding an average of 1.94 goals per game, and they shipped 4 goals in their most recent match. This game is likely to see the hosts forced to open up and attack, because San Diego defend poorly and concede often late in games, while the visitors will likely wait for counterattacking chances and use their speed when the hosts push high. If St. Louis City can dominate possession and avoid conceding easily as they have in many previous matches, this game has a fairly clear chance of ending in a home win.
