Pick:	Philadelphia -145

Analysis:

Doc’s Sports Free MLS Soccer Play. Take Philadelphia -145 over Charlotte (7:30 p.m. EST, Saturday June 14) (Graded after regulation time - 90min - plus injury time – a DRAW is a loser here) This is a fair price for Philly on Saturday. They have streaked to the top of the table and haven’t lost a match since early April. They are four points clear at the No. 1 spot in the east, so regardless of the result here they will still be in first after the weekend. But we think they will get their full three points here. Charlotte has been a very inconsistent side. They rarely draw – they either win or lose – so we aren’t too concerned about the tie here. They have a +1 goal differential compared to +14 for the Union. Charlotte has mostly done well against bad teams lately, but we don’t see them having much success here in the City of Brotherly Love. We will probably bet half a unit on Philly -1.5 also, as we think this will be a blowout. Read More Read Less
