Houston SaberCats vs Los Angeles RFC Prediction: Which team will extend its winning run?

In Major League Rugby, the Houston SaberCats will play Los Angeles RFC at SaberCats Stadium. The two teams have been impressive lately and will hope to keep that running. Which team wins here? Below, I preview this game and offer predictions.

Houston SaberCats

Houston SaberCats played San Diego Legion in their last league game and won. In a game they completely dominated, this team scored 17 points in each half while conceding 7. In the meantime, that win was Houston SaberCats’ fifth this season after a defeat to the Chicago Hounds in their opener. In that run, this team picked up wins over Los Angeles RFC, Seattle Seawolves, Utah Warriors, and Anthem RC. This season, Houston SaberCats have accumulated 25 points from six matches, which puts them top of the Western Conference with 208 goals scored and 150 conceded.

Los Angeles RFC

The Los Angeles RFC hope for a revenge win after losing to the Houston SaberCats 28-45 in their second game of the season. However, this team has been impressive in the past few weekends, pulling off consecutive wins. In that run, this team defeated NOLA Gold, Seattle Seawolves and Old Glory DC. In the meantime, it is worth noting that Los Angeles RFC opened their season with consecutive defeats, losing to San Diego Legion and New England Free Jacks. Ahead of this game, Los Angeles RFC sit 4th place in the standings with 18 points in the Western Conference.

Looking at the level of performances of both teams, it is clear that the Houston SaberCats will show another offensive performance like they have in the past.
