MLS Best Bets: June 10th - Value Picks for Three Matches this Saturday Night
MLS Best Bets: Saturday, June 10th
We have three of our best bets for the MLS this weekend as the fixtures come thick and fast. Many of the sides were in action midweek so they will be looking to build momentum as we approach the season’s halfway point.
Cincinnati have a comfortable lead at this stage but the playoff model means that there are always several teams in with a chance of lifting the trophy.
In this article:
- Atlanta United vs DC United Preview & Best Bet
- Chicago Fire vs Columbus Crew Preview & Best Bet
- Vancouver vs Cincinnati Preview & Best Bet
Atlanta United vs DC United Preview
Sunday, June 11th, 00:30 (UK)
Atlanta won the MLS back in 2018 but they will need to improve if they want to challenge for the crown this season. They finished a lowly 23rd last season and despite the improvement, they are still just behind the pack in the race to make it to post-season.
Wayne Rooney remains in charge of DC United. His side could leap frog Atlanta with a win at the weekend. They finished rock bottom of the MLS last season but it remains to be seen whether they can make the jump to become championship contenders.
Atlanta United vs DC United Best Bet
Atlanta have beaten DC United on the last four occasions these teams have met. Gonzalo Pineda’s men have been much better in front of their own fans. They have lost just one competitive match at the Mercedes-Benz stadium this season. The team are averaging 2.22 goals per game at home so they have the fire power to do some damage here.
DC United have struggled on the road. They won their last away match against Inter Miami, who have just secured the signature of Lionel Messi. However, they have only secured victory in three of their 10 away matches this season.
- Selection: Atlanta To Win
- Best Odds: 1.77 (Unibet)
- Stakes: 7/10

Chicago Fire vs Columbus Crew Preview
Sunday, June 11th, 01:30 (UK)
Chicago Fire are languishing near the bottom of the MLS table at this stage of the season. They finished 24th last season and look set for a similar finish yet again, barring a remarkable upturn in form. They have a miserable record against Columbus Crew; managing just one win in the last 10 head-to-heads.
Columbus Crew have 24 points after 16 matches this season. Their last two wins have catapulted them up the table and they are now within touching distance of the playoff places. The table is still very congested so they will be looking to take advantage by securing a win in Chicago this weekend.
Chicago Fire vs Columbus Crew Best Bet
Chicago Fire’s league matches this season have seen an average of 2.88 goals per game. Their home matches in all competitions have seen 3.18 per match so goals are on the agenda when they lock horns with Columbus Crew this weekend.
The Crew’s matches have seen the most goals in the MLS.
Their matches are seeing 3.56 goals per game. This is above the league average of 2.55 goals per game by some distance. This bet has landed in four of their last five matches in all competitions with an average of 4.2 goals per game.
- Selection: Over 2.5 Goals In The Match
- Best Odds: 1.73 (bet365)
- Stakes: 7/10

Vancouver vs Cincinnati Preview
Sunday, June 11th, 03:30 (UK)
Vancouver will need to improve significantly to earn a spot in the playoffs this season. They have amassed 21 points after 16 matches; managing to win consecutive matches just once in this campaign. Despite the inconsistency, they still fared well at home. Many of the visiting teams travel long distances to reach Vancouver. This has played to the home sides advantage.
Cincinnati are the pace setters as we approach the halfway mark of the regular season. They have picked up 39 points in 16 matches. Noonan’s men are on a great run of form and it has seen them open up an eight point lead over Nashville, their nearest rivals in the overall table.
Vancouver vs Cincinnati Best Bet
Vancouver have lost three of their last six competitive matches. They have been difficult to beat on home turf this season, with their only defeat at BC Place coming in the first match of the season. However, this weekend’s opponents have been in fine form and the price is very appealing.
Cincinnati are unbeaten in their last 12 matches in all competitions. The team have managed to win 10 of those matches and have looked formidable in the process. Pat Noonan’s team are conceding just 0.67 goals per game over this period. They have also shown that they have an eye for goal by scoring just under two goals per game on this run.
- Selection: Cincinnati To Win
- Best Odds: 3.80 (bet365)
- Stakes: 5/10
