Our prediction is: New Mexico United win or draw

The Double Chance market is an excellent option for those who want a little more security and a little less risk in their bets. Of the three potential outcomes in a football match (win, draw, loss), two of them ensure a winning bet.

And with the 1X bet, the home team has a higher probability of hitting on the bet thanks to the added advantage of playing in their own stadium.

So based on recent form and other factors, we feel confident enough in New Mexico United's ability to avoid defeat to make New Mexico United win or draw our top betting tip for this match.

Our prediction is: Lexington to win the 1st half

Lexington is a tough opponent to face, particularly away from home. They have enough dangerous attacking weapons to deal some damage up front, while the defence is quite solid as well.

It would not be a shock if they come in and give their hosts New Mexico United a bit of a scare in the early going.

That is why we recommend taking Lexington to win the first half.
