Our Predictions
Columbus at home is usually a tough nut, and with both teams scoring in recent matches, a high-scoring game seems likely given the odds. The offensive flair from both sides supports over 2.5 goals, and Columbus’s home advantage tips the balance slightly in their favor.
Both teams have had their ups and downs, and recent head-to-heads suggest a tight contest. With both teams finding the net recently and the potential for a high-scoring draw, this option is appealing, especially with decent odds on the draw.
New England’s recent away games tend to be tighter and more defensive. The odds favor a possible upset, but with fewer goals expected, a low-scoring defensive game could lean towards an away win with no BTS.
Welcome to Extratips, folks! Today we’ve got an intriguing clash in MLS 2025 – Columbus Crew hosting New England Revolution. The game kicks off on August 23rd at 23:30 in the USA — prime time for some football. Columbus, sitting at 5th with 42 points, needs a win to keep playoff hopes alive. They're currently without their last five matches being all over the map (LWLWD), so consistency isn't their middle name. Meanwhile, New England Revolution, perched at 11th with 36 points, just lost to LAFC, showing some rough patches lately. Looking at the odds, Bet365’s home win is at 1.53, suggesting a slight favoritism to Columbus, but the game’s anything but a sure thing. Draws are at 4.20, and an away win for New England climbs to 5.75 — not impossible, but a long shot. Their recent matches don’t favor the Revs either; they've lost or drawn more than they've won on the road lately. Columbus’s strengths? Strong home form and solid attack, yet defensive fragility is their weakness. For New England, inconsistency and weaker away form are concerns, despite some offensive sparks. Key factors? Injuries and recent tactical tweaks could decide it. An exciting angle? Will Columbus’s home advantage tip the scales, or will New England’s fighting spirit surprise us? Here are some predictions: First, a home win with Both Teams to Score, given both teams' recent scoring, but tight. Second, over 2.5 goals, as both squads have shown offensive sparks. Lastly, a draw with goals, considering recent head-to-heads and form-slumps. Expect a lively contest with plenty of twists—this one’s far from a dead cert, but a good watch for sure. Now, let's get into the predictions!
