MLS betting tips
Inter Miami vs Nashville SC
Even though they're at home, this is one of the toughest remaining games for Tata Martino's side. However, Lionel Messi's goal helped them claim a 1-1 goal in the reverse last week.
They would go on to lift the Leagues Cup via penalties in that game, but they showed their class against one of the league's better teams.
Nashville will be keen to avenge that defeat but Inter are on a mission, with as many as seven wins from 10 matches needed to make the playoffs. Winning at home is a must.
Minnesota United vs Orlando City
Sunday's 1-1 draw with Seattle marks the eighth consecutive Minnesota home game where both teams have found the school, which is a solid foundation for an overs bet.
We've witnessed an average of 3.25 goals per game during that run and if there's one thing their lowly visitors Colorado enjoy then it's conceding goals on the road.
The Rapids have lost their last seven on their travels - being outscored 21-4 - including 4-0 losses in Atlanta and Los Angeles. A home win and goals is on the cards.
San Jose Eathquakes vs LA Galaxy
The latest edition of the Cali Clasico takes place on Wednesday with the Galaxy looking to build on a win, clean sheet and debut goal for Billy Sharp.
Vancouver remains the only side to have beaten them in their previous nine matches, but San Jose did hold them to a 2-2 draw here just over a month ago.
The last six editions of this fixture have averaged exactly four goals with both teams scoring in all of them and eight instances of a side scoring at least two goals.
