Seeking to end a three-match losing streak in MLS, Atlanta United host Nashville SC in Saturday’s gameweek 11 fixture at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
The away side returned to winning ways with a 7-2 thrashing of the Chicago Fire last weekend and strive to secure consecutive victories for the first time in over a month against off-form hosts.
We say: Atlanta United 1-2 Nashville SC
Nashville have dominated this fixture, claiming five wins in 10 meetings with Atlanta, losing just one.
Given the Coyotes’ goalscoring form and Surridge’s recent four-goal blitz against the Fire, Callaghan’s team are backed to end their two-match losing streak away from home.

Toronto can claim their first home triumph of the 2025 Major League Soccer campaign when they host a surging New England Revolution side on Saturday at BMO Field.
The Reds are 14th in the Eastern Conference table following a 1-0 loss to New York City FC, while the Revs are just a point below the playoff line, defeating Charlotte FC by that same score.
We say: Toronto 0-1 New England Revolution
The Revs are starting to get their act together, and we believe their momentum will propel them to another victory on Saturday against a Toronto team struggling to create much in the attacking third.

Two teams who have made blistering starts to the 2025 MLS season will do battle at Lower.com Field on Sunday as Columbus Crew and Charlotte FC square up against each other.
Sitting second and fourth in the league table respectively, the hosts and their visitors have emerged as early frontrunners to win the Supporters’ Shield.
We say: Columbus Crew 2-1 Charlotte FC
Each of the last six meetings between the teams has yielded at least two goals, and we are anticipating another exciting affair here.
That said, we are also backing the home side to carry the day when all is said and done.

For the first time in over two years, DC United and the Colorado Rapids will face each other on the MLS stage Saturday, at Audi Field.
A 3-0 loss to the Philadelphia Union last weekend dropped the Black and Red to 13th in the Eastern Conference table, while the Rapids are fifth in the West following a 1-1 draw versus the Seattle Sounders.
We say: DC United 0-2 Colorado Rapids
Even if Benteke is available, there are far too many holes in the DC backline and more than enough weapons on the Rapids side to expose that.

Aiming to end their three-game losing streak in all competitions, beaten CONCACAF Champions Cup semi-finalists Inter Miami welcome New York Red Bulls to Chase Stadium for Saturday night’s round 11 MLS contest.
Javier Mascherano’s men were humiliated 5-1 on aggregate by the Vancouver Whitecaps in the continental competition, and the Herons hope to avoid a fourth defeat in a row against an opponent seeking back-to-back victories for the first time in the competition this term.
We say: Inter Miami 2-1 New York Red Bulls
The previous 10 encounters between Inter Miami and the Red Bulls have featured a winner, and Saturday should be no different.
While the New York team will strive to inflict further misery on Mascherano’s squad after Wednesday’s Champions Cup exit, the Herons are expected to return to winning form and avoid a fourth consecutive loss.

CF Montreal continue to search for that elusive first win in the 2025 MLS campaign when they host the Philadelphia Union on Saturday at Saputo Stadium.
Last weekend, Le CFM suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat at the New York Red Bulls, remaining bottom of the Eastern Conference table, with the Union sitting third after a 3-0 triumph over DC United.
We say: CF Montreal 2-1 Philadelphia Union
Montreal have been due for a win over the past few weeks and should be full of confidence following their victory at the Canadian Championship earlier this week.

Matchday 11 of the 2025 Major League Soccer campaign sees Austin FC and Minnesota United go head-to-head against each other at the Q2 Stadium on Sunday morning.
Level on points in the MLS table as things stand, the teams have made vastly similar starts to the season, and there is little to choose between them heading into this weekend’s encounter.
We say: Austin FC 1-1 Minnesota United
Goals have been hard to come by for the teams in recent games, but we can see both of them finding the back of the net here en route to a share of the spoils at the end of the 90 minutes.

Still licking their wounds from a humiliating 7-2 loss at the hands of Nashville, Chicago Fire go head to head with Orlando City at Soldier Field on Sunday morning.
While the home sides have struggled to get going of late, the Lions head into the weekend unbeaten in each of their last seven matches and will look to extend this solid run of form.
We say: Chicago Fire 1-2 Orlando City
Reeling from their humbling loss against Nashville, Chicago Fire will head into the weekend looking to stop the rot and restore some pride. However, Orlando have been tough to crack this season, and given their recent performance in this fixture, we fancy them to come away with all three points here, albeit by the odd goal.

Having lost each of their most recent three games, San Diego will be looking to stop the rot when they welcome Dallas to the Snapdragon Stadium in the MLS on Sunday morning.
The Bulls currently boast the best away record of all 30 teams in the league after six games on the road and will head into the weekend looking to extend this impressive run.
We say: San Diego 1-3 Dallas
After a solid start to their debut MLS season, San Diego appear to have run out of steam in recent weeks and will head into Sunday’s clash in search of a pick-me-up. However, Dallas journey to the Snapdragon Stadium as the more in-form side and we are tipping them to extend their fine run of results on their travels.

The Vancouver Whitecaps can maintain their lead atop the Major League Soccer table when they welcome Real Salt Lake to BC Place Stadium on Saturday.
After a convincing 3-1 victory at Minnesota United last week, the Caps are a point above FC Cincinnati in the Supporters’ Shield standings, while Claret and Cobalt are a point below the Western Conference playoff line following a 3-1 win over San Diego.
We say: Vancouver Whitecaps 2-2 Real Salt Lake
We expect some of the RSL newcomers will give them a much-needed energy boost this weekend, though the Caps are on such a roll that they should find a way to stay in this match after their emotional victory days ago.

Los Angeles FC will clash with Houston Dynamo at the BMO Stadium this weekend in their gameweek 11 MLS encounter.

We say: Los Angeles FC 1- 1 Houston Dynamo
Both teams are coming into this contest in decent form, and with both teams looking to build on their respective unbeaten runs, we envisage a tight affair, prompting us to back both sides to settle for a 1-1 draw.

Looking to end a three-game winless run, San Jose Earthquakes will welcome Portland Timbers to the PayPal Park this weekend for their MLS fixture.
The hosts are 11th in the Western Conference standings with 10 points from 10 matches, while the visiting side, who are second in the table with 18 points, will be aiming to extend their unbeaten run to eight games in the league.
We say: San Jose Earthquakes 1-2 Portland Timbers
Both sides have a knack for scoring goals, but the visitors have been more efficient, leading to a six-game unbeaten run, with four wins in that period.
Given the defensive woes of the hosts, we are backing Portland to claim a narrow 2-1 win.

Seattle Sounders will play host to St Louis City this weekend when they clash in their MLS fixture this weekend at the Lumen Field.
Coming into this contest, both sides are separated by three points and three places, with Sounders ninth in the Western Conference standings after accruing 13 points, while the visitors are 12th in the table.
We say: Seattle Sounders 1-1 St Louis City
These two sides come into this fixture looking to build on their recent performances, but Sounders go into this contest with an edge, playing in front of their fans, but we reckon this match will end in a 1-1 draw.
