Head-to-head statistics Vancouver - Saint-Louis

Vancouver Whitecaps Team Overview
Vancouver Whitecaps have shown a high attacking output throughout the season. In their last ten matches they have averaged 1.4 goals, and across the full season that figure rises to 2.29 per game. Defensively they have been reasonably solid - conceding fewer than one goal per game on average and losing only four times all season. There is a vulnerability, though: at home Vancouver Whitecaps have regularly been caught out, with opponents scoring in seven of their last eight matches at their ground, which points to risks when their attacking line sits high. Motivation is at its peak: their lead at the top is under pressure from the teams behind them, so the hosts will be looking to get a result without being overly cautious.

The visitors' motivation is high - St Louis City are holding a playoff position, and every point matters as they look to maintain their advantage over the teams immediately below them.

⭐ Editorial Prediction
The match looks set to revolve around both sides scoring: Vancouver Whitecaps have the best attack in the league but regularly concede at home, while St. Louis City are in excellent form and have not gone long without either scoring or making defensive errors.

The prediction is Both Teams to Score.
