Cincinnati vs DC United Preview
Cincinnati will be eager to get back on track after suffering back-to-back defeats to New England and Columbus. The hosts have struggled to find consistency lately, despite creating promising chances, and their injury list is a concern, with Malatini, Martinez, Robinson, and Echenique all sidelined. Cincinnati have averaged 2.42 expected goals per home game, suggesting they can still create opportunities, but they need to become more clinical in front of goal.
DC United, meanwhile, head into this clash knowing that their playoff hopes are at stake after consecutive losses to Orlando City and Cincinnati. The visitors have also been hit by several absences, with Johnson, Kijima, Munteanu, and Segal all unavailable through injury. Their away form is particularly worrying, as they have lost all four matches in the current sample while conceding an average of 3.25 goals per game on the road.
Neither side is in convincing form, but DC United's defensive struggles away from home give Cincinnati an opportunity to respond. With the visitors conceding 3.25 goals per away match and both teams scoring in 75% of their recent away games, Cincinnati to win, over 2.5 goals and both teams to score look like reasonable betting options.
