LAFC has had their hands full trying to guard Gabriel Pec this season, and we expect those struggles to continue in tonight's SoCal rivalry.
LAFC has had their hands full trying to guard Gabriel Pec this season, and we expect those struggles to continue in tonight's SoCal rivalry.Olivier Giroud and LAFC hope to extend their El Trafico winning streak when they visit the LA Galaxy in a key MLS fixture tonight.
Pec has put an effort on goal prior to the halftime intermission in five of his last six matches. At plus-odds, I’m backing him to do the same against LAFC. Despite conceding the fewest shots on goal of any team in MLS, LAFC had problems defending Pec in their two matches this season. He nearly scored an amazing long-range effort in the first half of their match in April, which had to be pushed away by Hugo Lloris.
You have to go back to October 2021 to find the last MLS match between these clubs that saw fewer than three goals. In fact, these clubs have staged El Trafico in league play 21 times since the start of the 2018 campaign, and only three times has the scoreline not ended up with 3+ goals on the board.LAFC are slight favorites away from home. One book has both sides evenly priced for the win on the 3-way line, with the draw paying +270.
