San Diego Legion vs New England Free Jacks Prediction: A competitive close encounter is expected

Snapdragon Stadium will host this 12 Major League Rugby game between the San Diego Legion and the New England Free Jacks. Free Jacks won the last meeting of this fixture. How will this one end?

The San Diego Legion returned to winning ways last weekend against the Dallas Jackals, securing a 30-24 win at home. In the meantime, prior games to that win saw San Diego Legion lose to Utah Warriors and Houston SaberCats in games that ended 32-33 and 33-0, respectively. In the meantime, the San Diego Legion have accumulated 30 points from 9 matches, positioning them in the 3rd spot in the Western Conference. 

New England Free Jacks lost to Chicago Hounds before their bye week, suffering a 20-26 defeat at home. In the meantime, that defeat was New England Free Jacks’ second in their last seven league games, one against Seattle Seawolves. However, this season, the visiting team has also defeated the likes of NOLA Gold, Chicago Hounds, Miami Sharks, Houston SaberCats, and Los Angeles. The visiting team has accumulated 30 points from 9 matches this season, positioning them top of the Eastern Conference. 

This is a very tough game to predict looking at how far these two sides have played this season. However, despite the odds not favoring them, New England Free Jacks are my favorites here. Nevertheless, the San Diego Legion will have their chances, but I prefer backing the road team to close the odds.
