FC Cincinnati will be aiming to build on a 2-1 win over New York City when they welcome Seattle Sounders, with the hosts aiming to cement their place in the playoff picture. Cincinnati have been in excellent form, winning 70% of their last 10 matches and an impressive 88% of their last eight at home. They have also averaged 3.13 goals per home game during that run, while scoring in every one of their last 10 matches. Pat Noonan has a full squad available for selection.
Seattle Sounders, on the other hand, head into the clash on a three-game losing streak in all competitions. They have conceded exactly 2.00 goals per game across those defeats and have struggled badly away from home, losing all five of their last five road games. Seattle have scored just 0.40 goals per away match during their last 10, while Jackson Ragen is another injury concern.
Cincinnati's outstanding home form makes them strong favourites. Therefore, Home Win is our main betting tip for this MLS matchup, alongside Cincinnati Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals total (Cincinnati's last 10 matches average 4.20 goals).
This MLS match will be played on Sunday 23 August 2026 at 00:30.
