Prediction: 3-1
DC United
Following a 1-1 draw with New England Revolution, Cincinnati will look to return to winning ways in the Major League Soccer when they take on DC United on Sunday morning. Cincinnati aim to overtake New England Revolution in top position and they are seen as favourites to beat the capital club in front of home fans. Defender Santiago Arias continues to miss out with injury, but he should be the only absentee in the home team.
DC United, on the other hand, are eyeing their fourth consecutive league win, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against the Orange and Blue. Defender Mohanad Jeahze misses out through suspension, while all Pedro Santos, Steve Birnbaum, Nigel Robertha, Martin Rodriguez, and Brendan Hines-Ike are out of contention through injuries. In their last meeting in MLS Cincinnati defeated DC United 5-2, which is probably the main reason why home win should be considered.
