MLS Week 26 Odds & Matches to Bet On Throughout the Week

It’s a busy week in the MLS, with a full slate of Wednesday games ahead of another full weekend.

There are, of course, a few teams that will get a break on Wednesday night, which might give them a bit of an advantage once the Saturday and Sunday games roll around, but our focus here is on the team that are in action this evening.

My MLS Match day 26 Top Games and Winning Picks Analysis

Cincinnati will be at home to Chicago as they loom to maintain their lead in the Eastern Conference, as well as in the race for the Supporters Shield.

They are trying to hold off Inter Miami, who many fans have as the favorite to win it all.

Over in the Western Conference, LAFC lead the way as they look to make it to their 3rd straight MLS Final.

They are all in action, but let’s get to the games we like to bet on Wednesday night.

Columbus -174 vs Charlotte +400

The defending champions Columbus Crew are in action tonight as they look to keep pace with the leaders in the East.

Columbus is 6 points off the pace being set by Cincinnati and have a tough one against 6th place Charlotte.

The Crew have been solid at home, going 6-1-3 in their own building.

They have scored 45 and surrendered just 19 goals this season, which could be a problem for Charlotte, who are having difficulty scoring, managing just 27 goals to this point. They are 4-6-1 on the road.

MLS Betting Prediction: Columbus 3-1 Charlotte
Draw: +340

Dallas -104 vs Austin +270

We all love a good rivalry game, and we have one here, with a pair of Texas teams squaring off.

We can probably expect a close one here, given that each of the last 3 meetings between these teams have been decided by a single goal.

Dallas has struggled on the road, but they have been tough to beat at home, going 7-3-2.

Austin is 4 points ahead of their state rivals at the moment, but this will be a tough game for a team that is just 2-6-3 on the road.

MLS Betting Prediction: Dallas 2-1 Austin
Draw: +260

Nashville +169 vs Orlando +148

This is another matchup that can essentially be described as a rivalry game, with both teams looking to be kings of the South.

Nashville is holding onto the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, but their biggest issue has been creating offense, managing just 26 goals to this point.

Orlando has scored more than their opponents tonight, but they have also been leakier on defense.

The last 2 meetings between these teams have delivered just 2 total goals, with Orlando winning both.

Let’s stick with that trend.

MLS Betting Prediction: Nashville 0-1 Orlando
Draw: +250

LAFC -210 vs Real Salt Lake +460

They don’t come much bigger than this game, with these two teams tied on the same number of points at the top of the Western Conference.

LAFC has played a game less than their opponent, though, which is why they are in the #1 spot.

They are 9-1-2 at home and have scored 44 goals this season versus 29 against.

Real Salt Lake could take the top spot with the win, but they have been mediocre on the road, going 4-2-6.

They are joint top scorers in the West with 48 goals versus just 29 against.

MLS Betting Prediction: LAFC 3-2 Real Salt Lake
Draw: +400
