Three MLS fixtures on Sunday and Monday offer sharp parlay value. Here are the best combinations with live odds.
Major League Soccer Parlay Picks - Sunday May 10 & Monday May 11
Three Major League Soccer fixtures are on the slate this Sunday and Monday, and the markets are throwing up some genuinely interesting prices. From New York City FC hosting Columbus Crew SC to Los Angeles FC closing out the weekend against Houston Dynamo, there is plenty to work with for parlay builders. Let's break down the best combinations available right now.
Fixture Breakdown & Key Angles
New York City FC vs Columbus Crew SC - Sunday 10 May (5:30 PM ET)
This looks like a high-engagement fixture between two Eastern Conference sides. The bookmakers clearly expect goals here - BTTS YES is priced at -164 (theScore Bet), reflecting the short implied probability that both nets get rattled. The Over 2.5 total at -139 (Bally Bet) reinforces that expectation. Columbus Crew SC, as the away side, is the underdog at +180 (FanDuel) - a price that catches the eye given the competitive nature of these Eastern Conference matchups. New York City FC at +145 (Bally Bet) to win at home is a solid anchor leg if you want the favourite without laying heavy juice.
Minnesota United FC vs Austin FC - Sunday 10 May (8:00 PM ET)
Minnesota United FC are sizeable home favourites here at -141 (Bally Bet), while Austin FC are massive underdogs at +400 (Caesars) - that is a price that screams value on paper, though the implied probability (20%) reflects real risk. The draw at +300 (Fanatics) is also worth noting. Under 2.5 goals at +110 (BetMGM) is an interesting play if you think this is a tight, controlled Minnesota performance. Flag: Austin FC +400 (Caesars) is a significant outlier price - if you like long-shot underdog moneylines, this is the one to consider as a small parlay enhancer.
Los Angeles FC vs Houston Dynamo - Sunday 10 May (10:00 PM ET)
LAFC are strong favourites at -149 (Fanatics) at home, with Houston Dynamo the big underdog at +430 (FanDuel) - the most generous underdog price on the entire slate. The Under 2.5 at +118 (Bally Bet) is a standout value play - getting plus money on the under in a game where the favourite is expected to control possession and tempo is genuinely attractive. BTTS YES at -130 (theScore Bet) suggests the market still expects Houston to threaten despite being heavy underdogs.
Recommended Parlay Combinations
Parlay 1 - Value Two-Legger: NYCFC Win + LAFC Win
Combining two home favourites across Sunday's slate gives a clean, straightforward parlay. New York City FC at +145 (Bally Bet) and LAFC at -149 (Fanatics) combine for strong combined odds. Both sides have home advantage and the markets back them clearly. This is the anchor parlay for the weekend.
- Leg 1: New York City FC to win - +145 (Bally Bet)
- Leg 2: Los Angeles FC to win - -149 (Fanatics)
- Combined odds: approximately +220
Parlay 2 - Goals Mixed Parlay: Minnesota United FC Win + LAFC vs Houston Under 2.5
This parlay mixes a home win with a totals leg for better overall value. Minnesota United FC at -141 (Bally Bet) look well positioned at home against Austin FC. Pair that with the Under 2.5 in the LAFC vs Houston Dynamo game at +118 (Bally Bet) - getting plus money on the under is rare and represents genuine value. A disciplined LAFC side protecting a lead late could easily keep this one tight.
- Leg 1: Minnesota United FC to win - -141 (Bally Bet)
- Leg 2: LAFC vs Houston Dynamo Under 2.5 goals - +118 (Bally Bet)
- Combined odds: approximately +180
Parlay 3 - Long-Shot Three-Legger: NYCFC Win + Minnesota United FC Win + Austin FC ML
For the risk-tolerant bettor, adding Austin FC at +400 (Caesars) to the two home favourites creates a juicy three-leg parlay. Austin FC +400 is flagged as a value outlier - Caesars are offering a significantly more generous price than competitors on this line. If you believe in upsets and want big returns from a small stake, this is the ticket. Be warned - it is a long shot for a reason.
- Leg 1: New York City FC to win - +145 (Bally Bet)
- Leg 2: Minnesota United FC to win - -141 (Bally Bet)
- Leg 3: Austin FC to win (ML) - +400 (Caesars)
- Combined odds: approximately +1150
Best Value Bet of the Slate
The standout value flag this weekend is Austin FC +400 (Caesars). The market elsewhere has Austin shorter, making this Caesars line look generous. A small sprinkle on Austin outright or included in a long-shot parlay offers excellent implied value relative to the true probability. Similarly, LAFC vs Houston Under 2.5 at +118 (Bally Bet) - plus money on an under involving a possession-heavy home favourite - is a sharp play worth backing.
Always gamble responsibly - set a budget before you bet and never wager more than you can afford to lose.
