San Diego FC travel with their own settled front line: Anders <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/us\/outright-markets\/mls-2026-golden-boot-betting-odds\/\">Dreyer<\/a> remains the league&#8217;s most dangerous forward with 13 goals and 76 chances created, Marcus Ingvartsen has added 12 goals of his own, and Onni Valakari (26 chances created) and Gabriel Pirani (4 goals) give the visitors options through the middle.<\/p>\n<p>St. Louis City SC have put together one of the best home platforms in the West this season, backed by a +15 goal difference that reflects a side equally comfortable going forward as it is defensively. San Diego FC&#8217;s own attack, built around Dreyer and Ingvartsen, has rarely gone quiet on the road, and with both defenses prone to conceding, Energizer Park should see goals at both ends even if St. Louis control the bulk of the game.<\/p>\n<p>US viewers can watch St. Louis City SC vs San Diego FC on Apple TV&#8217;s MLS Season Pass.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>\n.sq-bpg{--sig:#a8e039;--acc:#a8e039;--acc-ink:#0d2a08;--ink:#eaf5e6;--dim:#a7cbb8;--line:rgba(255,255,255,.10);\n

That stretch included a 6-2 demolition of LA Galaxy and a 3-0 win at New York Red Bulls, though a 0-0 draw with Vancouver Whitecaps and a 3-2 loss at Minnesota United have taken some shine off the form.<\/p>\n\n<h3>San Diego FC: D D L D D<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>2026-10-18: LA Galaxy 2-2 San Diego FC (D, away)<\/li>\n<li>2026-10-15: San Diego FC 3-3 Houston Dynamo (D, home)<\/li>\n<li>2026-10-11: New York Red Bulls 4-1 San Diego FC (L, away)<\/li>\n<li>2026-09-27: Austin FC 3-3 San Diego FC (D, away)<\/li>\n<li>2026-09-21: Inter Miami 2-2 San Diego FC (D, away)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>San Diego FC head into this one on a run of four draws and a loss across their last five matches.

Expect goals at both ends, with Dreyer too good to go quiet, but St. Louis&#8217; firepower through Becher and the creative platform of Edelman and Totland should edge it.
