Sunday afternoon will see two MLS sides at opposite ends of the Western Conference do battle, as St Louis City plays host to the LA Galaxy.
With the season approaching the midway point, the hosts are having a terrific first season in the league. They have the best goal differential in the league, and have made CityPark a fortress. Into that fortress come the Galaxy, as the long-time power has fallen on very hard times. With just 12 points from 15 matches, they must respond after being dumped out of the US Open Cup and try to find a cure...

Sunday afternoon will see two MLS sides at opposite ends of the Western Conference do battle, as St Louis City plays host to the LA Galaxy.
With the season approaching the midway point, the hosts are having a terrific first season in the league. They have the best goal differential in the league, and have made CityPark a fortress. Into that fortress come the Galaxy, as the long-time power has fallen on very hard times. With just 12 points from 15 matches, they must respond after being dumped out of the US Open Cup and try to find a cure for their goal-scoring woes.
Will St Louis steamroll another side at home, or is this the match where the Galaxy finally start to figure things out? We discuss that and more in our St Louis City vs. LA Galaxy betting picks and predictions for Sunday, June 11.

Expansion teams aren’t typically supposed to be this dominant, even at home. But despite having played just 15 matches while many sides have played 16 or more, St Louis leads MLS with 32 goals scored as they’ve taken 28 of a possible 45 points.
They’ll be happy to be back home, though. Only 10 of their 28 tallies have come away from CityPark this season, and their 2-0 defeat on Tuesday was their fourth defeat in five away fixtures with three of those matches seeing them shut out.
Scoring hasn’t been an issue in any way at home for the club. In fact, seven of their nine home tilts thus far in all competitions have seen them score three or more goals. The only two matches where they didn’t reach that mark are unsurprisingly their only two defeats at home, as well.
Those two defeats have something else in common — they’re the only two instances of St Louis’ nine home matches where the home side failed to score in the first half. Going a step further, they also happen to be the only ones where St Louis wasn’t in front at the intermission. In fact, only one visiting team has even scored in the first half at CityPark this season, and that was when Charlotte opened the scoring in the first match of the campaign.
Like Charlotte, LA Galaxy scored before halftime of their first away match of the season. That’s only happened once for them since, and that came by way of a 45th-minute penalty in their 3-2 win at Real Salt Lake last weekend. Their return visit to Salt Lake City on Tuesday night was more of the same, as they fell behind 2-0 before the break and were eliminated from the Open Cup by an identical 3-2 scoreline. But the defeat wasn’t the only bad news for the Galaxy, as striker Chicharito Hernandez tore his ACL and will miss the rest of the season. 
St Louis is favored to win the match, and the money line is a good bet. They’re destroying teams at home, and they’re taking on a side that simply looked scared at times and now must replace their star forward. It would be easy to roll with that pick and call it a day.
But I’m looking for a bit more of a payday for my best bet, and I believe the first half money line is the way to go. The Galaxy have been outscored 7-2 in all competitions before halftime this season, and they’ve looked bad at both ends of the pitch. If things are going to go to script, then I expect LA Galaxy to be down early to a St Louis team that will swarm them and force them into mistakes early and often.  My best bet: St Louis City first-...
