Major League Soccer

Atlanta United vs. Orlando City SC

• When: Saturday, July 15, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Atlanta United +132 // Orlando City SC +205

ATL United heads into this playing excellent soccer. The home favorite is on a 2-match winning streak. On July 2, Atlanta beat Philly Union 2-0. In the match right after, the ATL dusted Montreal 1-0.

Orlando is also playing well. The underdog lost to Real Salt Lake in their last, but before the loss, Orlando had beaten Toronto 4-0 and Chicago Fire 3-1. OC City may not win, but they should bounce back with a good effort. The draw is the play.

Soccer Betting Pick: Draw

Philadelphia Union vs. New York City FC

• When: Saturday, July 15, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Philadelphia Union -125 // New York City FC +330

The underdog in this shows a win and 4 draws in their last 5. New York City beat Montreal 1-0 on July 1. Then in their next two, versus Charlotte and Columbus, NYC FC drew 1-1 in both.

Philly Union is on a 2-match losing streak. Atlanta beat Philadelphia 2-0 on July 2 and the Galaxy dusted P. Union 3-1 on July 8. Philadelphia is too good of a team to lose 3 straight. The Union gets the nod.

Soccer Betting Pick: Philadelphia Union

Colorado Rapids vs. Houston Dynamo FC

• When: Saturday, July 15, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Colorado Rapids +121 // Houston Dynamo FC +2000

Neither squad is playing great soccer. Houston has lost 2-of-3 with a draw. The best thing we can say about the Dynamo’s form is that the draw happened in the last.

Colorado won their last contest, 2-1 against Dallas, but the Rapids had lost 2-of-3 with a draw in their previous 3 matchups. These two have drawn in the last couple of head-to-head games. Another draw is probable.

Soccer Betting Pick: Draw

Real Salt Lake vs. New York Red Bulls

• When: Saturday, July 15, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Real Salt Lake +113 // New York Red Bulls +210

The Red Bulls won their last match, a 2-1 game versus the New England Revolution. But before the victory, NYRB shows a straight-up loss to the Columbus Crew.

Real Salt Lake is on fire. The home chalk has won 4-of-5 with a draw. The last win was a breathtaking 4-0 victory against Orlando City. Salt Lake prevails.

Soccer Betting Pick: Real Salt Lake

Portland Timbers vs. Columbus Crew

• When: Saturday, July 15, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Portland Timbers +126 // Columbus Crew +180

It’s tough to back Portland. The Timbers may have home pitch advantage, but the form isn’t there to warrant a play. Portland has 2 losses and 2 draws in their last 4.

The road dog in this has drawn twice in their last 2. Before the draws, Columbus had won 2 straight. The odds make the underdog the play.

Soccer Betting Pick: Columbus Crew

Seattle Sounders SC vs. FC Dallas

• When: Saturday, July 15, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Seattle Sounders SC -128 // FC Dallas +340

FC Dallas is a mess. The huge road underdog has lost 4-of-5. What’s interesting is that Dallas’ lone victory in their last 5 came versus LAFC in a 2-0 game.

Seattle has won 2 straight, over Houston and Vancouver. Before the victories, the Sounders drew 1-1 in a match versus Orlando City. The home team is playing much better than their road rival. Seattle gets the nod.

Soccer Betting Pick: Seattle Sounders SC
