Best Bet: New York City Moneyline
NYC just had a tough first loss of the season, where they gave up the tying goal and game-winning goal late in the game. It was their worst defensive game in this young season and they usually give up one or fewer. They have a consistent offense and St. Louis got their first win against another below-average team and finally got their offense going, but it will be tested in this one.
