Two teams at the top of the Major League Soccer Western Conference will meet on Saturday when Seattle Sounders welcome Los Angeles FC.
Both teams have made bright starts to the new campaign as they each boast two victories which is momentum they will each be aiming to extend.
We say: Seattle Sounders 2-2 Los Angeles FC
Both teams have started the new campaign in impressive fashion, and that has included both of them scoring a lot of goals. With that in mind, it should be an entertaining match, and one that could lead to them sharing the points here.

Atlanta United will be looking to continue their fine start to the 2023 Major League Soccer season when they play host to Portland Timbers on Sunday.
Meanwhile, the away side make the trip to Mercedes-Benz Stadium aiming to end a run of consecutive defeats and pick up a first win since the opening weekend.
We say: Atlanta United 2-1 Portland Timbers
Atlanta have been poor on home turf of late, but their recent form should give them cause for optimism heading into this weekend's game. We anticipate an open and end-to-end affair with the hosts narrowly coming out on top in the end.

Montreal vs. Philadelphia (Saturday, 11.30pm)

The top two teams in the Eastern Conference at the end of the previous regular season will square off for the first time in 2023, as CF Montreal host the Philadelphia Union in their home opener at Olympic Stadium on Saturday.
Montreal are 0-3 to begin the new MLS campaign, falling 2-0 at Nashville SC a week ago, while the Union scored late to defeat the Chicago Fire 1-0, improving to 2-1 on the season.
We say: CF Montreal 0-1 Philadelphia Union
Even with little time to rest for this encounter, we do not expect the Union backline to have much trouble containing a Montreal side still struggling to make that decisive final pass.
Philadelphia were the top defensive unit in the league last season for a reason, they are experienced and well-organised at the back, while we believe there will be too many attacking weapons for the home team to handle this weekend.

New England vs. Nashville (Saturday, 11.30pm)

Enjoying their best-ever start to a Major League Soccer season, Nashville SC travel to Gillette Stadium to face the New England Revolution on Saturday.
Nashville extended their unbeaten run to three games with a 2-0 victory over CF Montreal last weekend, while New England suffered a 4-0 thrashing at the hands of Los Angeles FC.
We say: New England Revolution 1-1 Nashville SC
Nashville look set to extend their unbeaten run to four games on Saturday, although the visitors may have to settle for a point against New England, as Arena's men will be eager steady the ship following last weekend's humiliation at LAFC.

New York Red Bulls host Columbus Crew in the MLS Eastern Conference on Saturday.
As we enter matchday four of the season, neither side have made a particularly convincing start to the campaign.
We say: New York Red Bulls 1-1 Columbus Crew
There is more to come from both sides, and the Red Bulls will hope home advantage can give them an edge as they seek a first win of the season.
Columbus have shown improvement after a woeful opening day, but will rely on Zelarayan for inspiration here.

NY City vs. DC United (Saturday, 11.30pm)
© Reuters
New York City FC welcome Wayne Rooney's DC United to Yankee Stadium this weekend, with the two clubs locked on four points in the Eastern Conference.
It would not be unfair to say that both sides have made an indifferent start to the 2023 Major League Soccer season, meaning that Saturday's match already feels like a pivotal clash.
We say: New York City FC 2-1 DC United
Having tasted victory for the first time in 2023 last weekend, we expect New York City FC to secure back-to-back wins when DC United visit Yankee Stadium, while Rooney's side look set to concede more than one goal for the third time in four outings.

Orlando City vs. Charlotte FC (Saturday, 11.30pm)

Orlando City will look to continue their unbeaten start to their Major League Soccer campaign when they host Charlotte FC at the Exploria Stadium on Saturday.
The visitors, meanwhile, have lost all three of their opening matches to begin the new season, so they will be eager to put that right this weekend.
We say: Orlando City 2-0 Charlotte FC
Orlando won this fixture home and away last season, and we think they will extend Charlotte's miserable start to the new campaign when the sides meet on Saturday.
The Lions have been excellent defensively, and we do not think Charlotte have the attacking firepower to trouble the hosts.

Toronto vs. Inter Miami (Saturday, 11.30pm)

Toronto will wrap up their two-game homestand on Saturday as they search for their first victory of the MLS regular season when they host Inter Miami at BMO Field.
The Reds have drawn back-to-back games by a 1-1 score, while the Herons dropped their first points of the campaign in the Bronx a week ago, falling 1-0 to New York City FC.
We say: Toronto 1-1 Inter Miami
Both sides are missing some critical pieces to their roster, and as successful as Miami have been in Toronto, they have not created a ton of quality scoring opportunities to this point of the campaign, while the Reds are still trying to find some consistency in their overall game.

Chicago Fire vs. Cincinnati (Sunday, 12.30am)
© Reuters
The 2023 Eastern Conference season continues in the MLS in the early hours of Sunday as Chicago Fire host FC Cincinnati at Soldier Field.
These two teams had differing fortunes in their last match as the hosts were beaten 1-0 at Philadelphia Union whilst Cincinnati triumphed by the same scoreline at home against the Seattle Sounders.
Last weekend's results leave Chicago in 13th in the Eastern Conference table, while Cincinnati sit third ahead of their fourth match of the season.
We say: Chicago Fire 0-2 FC Cincinnati
Cincinnati will be confident of hurting any team this season with a front pairing of Vazquez and Brenner.
The strikers and the additional goal threat of Acosta in the midfield should be too much for a badly out of form Chicago to cope with, so Noonan's side are strong favourites to collect their third win of the season here.

Dallas vs. Kansas (Sunday, 12.30am)
© Reuters
The MLS season reaches gameweek four at the weekend as Sporting Kansas City travel to Texas to face Dallas at the Toyota Stadium in the early hours of Sunday morning.
The hosts are currently sixth in the Western Conference table whilst Kansas sit in 10th.
We say: Dallas 2-0 Sporting Kansas City
Both these teams are in less than ideal form going into the match, but Dallas' excellent home record means they will be confident of recording a win given their opponents' winless start to the season.

Houston vs. Austin (Sunday, 12.30am)

The first instalment of the 2023 Copa Tejas takes place this weekend at PNC Stadium as the Houston Dynamo host Austin FC in their MLS home opener on Saturday.
Orange Crush are the only Western Conference side without a point so far this season, losing their previous encounter 3-0 to the New England Revolution, while the Verde and Black have won consecutive domestic affairs, edging Real Salt Lake 2-1 a week ago.
We say: Houston Dynamo 1-2 Austin FC
Houston have had two weeks to build some chemistry since their defeat against the Revs, but they are coming up against a team in Austin who appear to have more scoring depth than a year ago and will be in a foul mood following their CCL elimination.

St Louis City vs. Earthquakes (Sunday, 12.30am)

The MLS season reaches gameweek four at the weekend as St Louis City host San Jose Earthquakes in the Western Conference in the early hours of Sunday morning.
The hosts are sitting pretty at the top of the table, whilst their visitors are fifth with six points from their opening three matches.
We say: St Louis City 2-1 San Jose Earthquakes
St Louis are flying right now and their momentum should carry them through this game.
San Jose's dreadful away record means that City will be confident of making it four wins in a row in front of their own fans on Sunday morning.

Colorado vs. Minnesota Utd (Sunday, 1.30am)

The MLS season continues at the weekend as the Colorado Rapids face Minnesota United at DSG Park in the early hours of Sunday morning.
The Rapids come into the game in 13th place in the Western Conference table while Minnesota are currently seventh.
We say: Colorado Rapids 0-1 Minnesota United
Diego Rubio is a massive loss to an already goal-shy Colorado, and their lack of firepower combined with a poor defensive record means that the visitors will be confident of exploiting the Rapids' fragile confidence and piling more pressure on Robin Fraser to continue their own fine start to the season.

LA Galaxy vs. Vancouver (Sunday, 2.30am)
© Reuters
A pair of winless sides square off at Dignity Health Sports Park on Saturday as the Los Angeles Galaxy host the Vancouver Whitecaps in their 2023 Major League Soccer home opener.
The Galaxy picked up their first result of the new campaign a week ago, drawing Sporting Kansas City 0-0, while Vancouver also earned a point with a 1-1 draw at home to Dallas.
We say: Los Angeles Galaxy 1-2 Vancouver Whitecaps
As poor as Vancouver have been away from home in recent years, they have played better than their current record indicates, while the Galaxy look lost without their star striker in the attacking third and have not been able to create much when in possession.
