Prop Bets: Atlanta United FC VS Columbus Crew SC 2025-06-25
MLS Showdown: Columbus Crew SC vs. Atlanta United FC – A Goal-Scoring Buffet (and a Side of Drama)
Date: June 25, 2025 | Time: 7:30 PM ET | Location: Columbus Crew SC’s “Home Field Advantage” (a.k.a. Where the Grass is Always Greener… and the Pressure is Higher)
The Lowdown:
Columbus Crew SC, fresh off a season where their offense sometimes played “hot potato” with scoring chances, hosts Atlanta United FC, a team that’s mastered the art of “Almost Had It.” The game promises a feast of player props, because nothing says “suspense” like 30+ goal-scorer odds.
Key Props to Watch:
1. Diego Rossi (Columbus): The Crew’s golden boy is the favorite to score first (+500 FanDuel) and anytime (+125 DraftKings). If he nets the opener, consider it a coronation. If not? He’ll probably still score last, per his contract.
2. Miguel Almirón (Atlanta): The Five-TimeMLSPosterChild is priced at +285 (DraftKings) for an anytime goal. Will he finally break his “I’ve had 10 shots on goal this season… but zero goals” curse? Only time tells—or maybe a $285 bet.
3. Jacen Russell-Rowe (Columbus): The young phenom’s +175 (DraftKings) anytime odds make him a dark horse. Bet on him, and you’re either a genius or a fan of his highlight-reel dribbles.
4. Mohamed Farsi (Columbus): Shots-on-target prop: Over 0.5 (-150, BetRivers). If he’s not scoring, he’s definitely testing goalposts.
The Joke’s on Us:
- Atlanta’s “No Scorer” Prop: At +1400 (FanDuel), it’s the soccer version of buying a lottery ticket. Don’t bet on it… unless you really want to validate your “tactic” of sitting in the middle of the field.
- Diego Rossi vs. the Clock: With +125 odds for an anytime goal, Rossi is basically a 14% chance to score. That’s a higher success rate than most of us have for remembering to water our plants.
Prediction:
Columbus wins 2-1, with Rossi scoring first and last (because he’s that reliable). Almirón will have a “meh” game, and Farsi will take 10 shots, 0 on target, but hey—the prop pays off.
Final Tip:
Bet on Rossi to score first, but also take out insurance by betting “No Scorer” just in case. Why not? It’s the sportsbook equivalent of having a backup backup backup plan.
May the odds be ever in your favor—or at least in Diego Rossi’s. 🎲⚽
