Our prediction for this MLS match:
New England Revolution will be aiming to extend their winning run to five games when they take on Nashville at Gillette Stadium. The Revs have been scoring goals for fun in the MLS of late, and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. A man to watch in the home team will be Poland international Adam Buksa, who has found his goal-scoring touch of late.
The midweek clash comes too early for Tajon Buchanan and Matt Turner, who participated at the 2021 Gold Cup, while Colombia international Caicedo is sidelined through injury. Nashville, on the other hand, will be without Godoy, Lovitz, and Zimmerman in Thursday’s clash. Gary Smith’s troops are a real force to be reckoned with at home, but given their anything but good away record, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the home team.
