MLS Parlay of the Week | Week 16

After a few midweek matches in the MLS, we move into the weekend for our Parlay of the Week. Our US Legal Betting experts found three more plays for a lucrative multi bet offering sports bettors top odds if all three cash successfully. New York sportsbooks will be full of action as both the Red Bulls and NYCFC are at home for highly winnable affairs against inferior opponents. The L.A. Galaxy may be playing on the road as they head to Chicago, but still find themselves as favorites to topple the struggling Fire. Bettors can win better than 4-1 on their money when they combine all three for a parlay. Find out how we're building our bankroll using odds from the top online betting sites.

NYCFC Moneyline (-165) | BetRivers

NYCFC has been possibly the biggest positive surprise of the season in 2024. Four straight wins has them currently sitting in sixth place in the Eastern Conference, including a 1-0 victory over New England last week. New York has now recorded at least a point in seven of its last eight games.

Neither side in this week’s matchup with San Jose played a midweek game so both will be well rested. Tack on the fact that NYC will be off until June 14 and we can expect head man Nick Cushing to run with his starting 11 as much as is needed.

San Jose has not had quite the same success this season. The Earthquakes sit in 27th in the Shield Cup standing and remain winless in their last four matches. While they managed to tie with Austin FC on the road last week, they also have a number of players suspended for this match with their cross-country foes.

New York Red Bulls -150 | BetRivers

The Red Bulls will take on Orlando City at home, which is great news for one of the best home teams in the league. New York is coming off a nice 3-1 win over red-hot Charlotte in a midweek match, making it three wins in its last four games.

At home, NY has the second-best expected goal differential with nearly one more expected goal per game than its opponents. As for actual goals, they have an impressive +9 goal differential, scoring 14 while allowing just five. Their expected goals also stand at an impressive 2.33 when playing in their own stadium, while they’ve only conceded .83 per match.

Orlando has been impressive in its own right, recording points in four of their last five games. Last week’s showing in Chicago against the lowly Fire, however, highlights the weak competition they’ve faced of late. Their wins on the road are none too impressive either, with away victories against Philadelphia, San Jose, and D.C. United. City’s underlying metrics also expose the luck that has fostered a few of their positive results, as they’re in the bottom ten of the league in goal differential.

L.A. Galaxy Draw No Bet -150 | BetRivers

The L.A. Galaxy have been impressive this season, picking up points in each of their last six games. While that streak includes a few road wins against questionable competition such as Vancouver, Kansas City, and San Jose, the Fire might be even worse than those teams. We're getting great value to fade Chicago, as Illinois sportsbooks list them as favorites in this one.

Chicago hasn’t won a game in its last nine fixtures, including its last six at home. The Fire have a -7 goal differential at home, scoring just nine times while yielding 16 scores. A major area of vulnerability for Frank Klopas’s side has been allowing opposing wings to run freely up the sidelines en route to the most goals allowed to the position. That just happens to be one of the Galaxy’s main areas of strength.

As terrible as Chicago has performed this season, especially at home, the Galaxy haven’t instilled much confidence that they can overcome the draw and pull out wins on the road. L.A. has drawn its last two road games and last three games overall. With that in mind, let’s stick with the draw no bet for Los Angeles.
