Our prediction is: Kansas City win or draw

The match is an evenly balanced affair with very little difference between the two sides. But the added benefit of home advantage is enough to tilt the scales in Kansas City's favour.

We recommend betting on Kansas City to win or draw on the Double Chance market. Since they will be playing in front of their home fans, that should give them that extra boost they need to avoid defeat, which is the only condition to win the bet.

Our prediction is: Both teams to score

The match between Kansas City and Portland Thorns has all the necessary ingredients for plenty of goals. And of course: for both sides - and that's the focus of our bet here.

Therefore, we believe that the Both Teams to Score market is the best recommendation here, as the attacks are working well and, on some occasions, the defenses have been making mistakes.

That's why we're going with BTTS.
