Our prediction for this MLS match:
Cincinnati will be aiming to build on the CONCACAF CL win over Cavalier when they take on Toronto FC in their MLS opener. Important defender Matt Miazga misses Sunday’s clash through suspension, while both London Aghedo and Nick Hagglund should miss out with injuries. New recruits Corey Baird and Miles Robinson are likely to make their Cincinnati debuts in MLS against the Reds.
The Canadian outfit, on the other hand, failed to win the last three warm-up games and given Cincinnati’s fine performances in preseason, we predict that the visitors are going to return home empty-handed. A man to watch in the away team will be new signing Deybi Flores, John Herdman has no fresh injury worries. In each of their last four meetings in the Major League Soccer Cincinnati defeated Toronto, which is yet another reason why we are going to put our money on the home side.
