Streak for the Cash November 1

With a new month, all streaks are reset in ESPN's Streak for the Cash. The potential prize is up to $300 grand with at least a W27. There are a few matchups throughout the day that look enticing. My personal strategy is to pick a matchup that I know a little bit about and look through all of the matchups for the best one or two each day. I hope for a win each day and after the 30 days in a month, be at W30. There are usually one or two matchups each day that stick out from the rest.

November 1: The main matchup I'm looking at is the MLS Playoff between Vancouver and LA Galaxy. The matchup is Vancouver Win, Draw, or Lose by One or LA Galaxy Win by 2 or more. In the previous 3 matchups this season, LA Galaxy is 2 Wins 1 Draw and 0 Losses. The wins were 3-0 and 2-0 and the Draw was 2-2. The two wins were at home and this game is in LA too. I expect LA to win this game and the matchup. Another positive about choosing this matchup is that it allows you to pick some of the earlier picks, and give yourself a 50/50 shot to head into this matchup already with a W1 streak.
