Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.804/5 in LA Galaxy v Kansas City

Tobias Gourlay's hoping to see some Hollywood football as Kansas City visit LA Galaxy tonight

LA Galaxy v Kansas City
Monday 02:00

Bah, Hamburg indeed. Our boys Schalke threw away an early lead in northern Germany yesterday, eventually losing 3-2 to a last-minute winner from Aaron Hunt.

Our hunt for a winner takes us across the Atlantic for the week's final bet. Early in the new MLS season, and everything so far suggests Kansas City's trip to LA Galaxy will be full of goals.

Galaxy's first two home games of the campaign have brought 2-1 and 4-3 wins over Portland and city rivals Los Angeles.

Kansas have hit the road twice already, delivering a 4-3 win at Chicago and a 2-2 draw at Colorado. Going back into last season, both teams have scored in eight of their last 10 away from home and we fancy there are more goals for the early hours of Monday morning (UK time).

Galaxy have served up Over 2.5 Goals in 10/14 at the StubHub Center. There have also been Over 2.5 Goals in six of Galaxy's most recent eight clashes with Kansas and that's enough to make it our final bet of this week.
