Major League Soccer takes a back seat to International football this weekend, but there are still crucial games taking place with an abbreviated schedule.
Saturday 25th March
New England Revolution (-275) vs. Minnesota United (+600) 2pm ET
Minnesota United's Major League Soccer baptism hasn't gone well.
However, despite conceding 13 goals so far (more than double the next worst defense), they will be boosted by their willingness to attack.
They've scored four times in three games, not a bad return for a new franchise sitting at the foot of the Western Conference. New England Revolution are at the bottom of the Eastern Conference, and Lee Nguyen is the only Revs player to hit the score sheet in three hours.
If Minnesota can man-mark Nguyen and keep him quiet, they have every chance of escaping New England with a tie (+350), with both teams scoring in a tie better value at +400. Minnesota are likely to both concede and score given their three games have so far involved 17 goals. New England are +2000 to edge out their opponents 3-2, value if you are thinking they will get their first win of the season.
New York Red Bulls (-200) vs. Real Salt Lake (+450) 4pm ET
New York Red Bulls have a olden opportunity to move top of the Eastern Conference as they prepare to do battle with winless RSL. Red Bulls often come out of the gate like gangbusters at home. The available 15/8 odds on the European markets (via paddypower.com below) for Red Bulls to open the scoring in 25 minutes is great value.
Red Bulls have defeated RSL by one goal in thier last two encounters and are +240 to do so again. Both teams have conceded four goals in three games.
Columbus Crew (+110) vs. Portland Timbers (+210) 7.30pm ET
Columbus Crew, before the disastrous result last weekend in Houston, enjoyed a decent start to the season. Can they forget about that result at home to Portland this weekend?
Timbers should be considered at +210.
If you're worried about a close game ruining the straight bet, the draw no bet is available at +135. Both teams score a lot so the over 3.5 goals, at +165, offers great value. Portland leading 1-0 at half and the match resulting in a 2-2 tie is offering +5500. Show me the money.
