Our prediction for this MLS match:
Thursday’s football game at TQL Stadium pits together Cincinnati and Nashville, the two teams who are sitting in the opposite halves of the table. Cincinnati are eyeing their eighth consecutive league win and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Luca Orellano, who scored a brace in a thrilling 4-3 win over Toronto, while all Yuya Kubo, Corey Baird, Alvas Powell, and Aaron Boupendza remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Nashville, on the other hand, made a slow start to the season and given their difficulties on the road, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from Thursday’s encounter. Both Randall Leal and Lukas MacNaughton are out of contention with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the away team.
