MLS Predictions: Best Picks for Conference Finals (Dec 2-3)

Ace Football presents exclusive betting tips for the MLS games of the weekend.

As we prepare for the Conference finals of the 2023 Major League Soccer (MLS) season, our experts take a look at the bookmakers’ predictions for the upcoming matches.

Let’s check out two betting tips for MLS matches of the weekend.

Cincinnati vs Columbus Crew

Cincinnati reached the MLS Conference final after clinching a narrow win over Philadelphia last weekend. Given the hosts’ incredible attacking consistency in recent matches, we expect them to find the back of the net against Columbus. However, Columbus’ goalscoring stats in away games, combined with Cincinnati’s defensive issues in their fixture against Philadelphia, suggests we will see goals on both sides on Saturday.

LAFC vs Houston Dynamo

LAFC claimed a 1-0 victory over Seattle Sounders to qualify for the Western Conference final. On Sunday, they will take on Houston Dynamo, who claimed an impressive victory over Sporting Kansas City in the semi-finals. Having scored ten goals in their last two home games, LAFC are the clear favourites to win this match. On the other hand, Houston Dynamo’s recent attacking displays don’t suggest they can prevent the hosts from outscoring them in the upcoming final.
