St Louis City vs Los Angeles Galaxy Predictions
St Louis City vs Los Angeles Galaxy Prediction and Betting Tips for Matchday 17 of Major League Soccer 2025, set for Saturday, June 15 at CITYPARK. In this article, you’ll discover MLS Predictions from XpertStats tipsters, including stats-driven analysis and betting angles ahead of this Western Conference basement battle.
- St Louis City have scored just 0.88 goals per game on average in MLS 2025.
- LA Galaxy have conceded an average of 2.33 goals per match this season.
- Both teams are among the bottom two in the Western Conference standings.
- St Louis are unbeaten in all five previous meetings with the Galaxy.
St Louis City’s early-season momentum has faded quickly, with the Missouri side slipping into a difficult stretch that prompted a managerial change. Interim coach David Critchley has already overseen a mixed start, but his team will be eyeing a second consecutive home win after edging out San Jose in their last outing at CITYPARK. Despite a modest scoring average of just 0.88 goals per game, the hosts remain dangerous on their turf, earning 64% of their total points at home. Defensive consistency remains elusive, with St Louis conceding in eight straight MLS matches.
However, St Louis City’s record against the Galaxy offers some optimism. They’re unbeaten in five previous head-to-head clashes, including a 3-0 away win earlier this season and a 2-1 triumph at CITYPARK last year. With a relatively low-scoring profile (only 13% of their games have exceeded 3.5 goals), the hosts are unlikely to be drawn into a shootout, especially given their cautious approach under Critchley.
Los Angeles Galaxy finally tasted victory last weekend, ending a long drought with a 2-0 home win over Real Salt Lake. It was also their first clean sheet since August 2024, breaking a streak of leaky defensive displays. However, problems persist on the road: LA have collected just two points from nine away matches and have not beaten a Western Conference side away from home since October last year. Despite boasting 56% of matches with both teams scoring, their average of just 0.78 goals per game reflects continued attacking struggles, especially without injured playmaker Riqui Puig.
Greg Vanney’s men showed improved resilience in their last match but face a tough ask in St Louis. The Galaxy have lost their last six away league fixtures and continue to concede heavily, with an average of over two goals allowed per game. If they can’t tighten up defensively and find reliable sources of goals, their revival could be short-lived. In a clash between two inconsistent sides, a tight, low-scoring affair is likely, especially with both squads missing key players.
Expect a cautious contest where neither team is likely to run away with it, making MLS Predictions favoring a low total goal count a smart angle to consider.
St Louis City and LA Galaxy have struggled to produce high-scoring matches in the 2025 MLS season. St Louis average only 0.88 goals scored per match, and their games feature a total of just 1.88 goals on average. On the other side, LA Galaxy aren’t faring much better with an average of 0.78 goals scored per game, although their overall matches have slightly higher totals due to defensive lapses, averaging 3.11 goals. Still, only 33% of their games have exceeded the 3.5-goal mark. St Louis themselves have only seen over 3.5 goals in 13% of their fixtures. Both teams lack consistent attacking firepower and are missing key creative players like Riqui Puig and Rasmus Alm. Given that this is a matchup between the Western Conference’s two lowest-ranked teams, caution is expected to prevail. Recent history also suggests tight scorelines between these two sides. All signs point to a pragmatic, low-scoring encounter at CITYPARK.
