DC United will be eager to return to winning ways after a dramatic 4-4 draw with New York Red Bulls, with Tai Baribo stealing the spotlight thanks to his hat-trick. With the capital club turning their Audi Field into a real fortress, we predict a 2-1 home win. Despite that attacking display, DC’s overall form remains shaky, picking up just 0.9 points per game from their last 10. They average only 0.8 goals per match but concede 1.4, while their home defensive record is particularly worrying at 2.0 goals conceded per game. Their xGA of 1.52 further highlights ongoing defensive issues.
Orlando City arrive in similarly poor form (0.7 PPG), but their matches are consistently high-scoring, averaging a massive 4.1 total goals per game. The Lions concede a worrying 3.1 goals per match, including 3.43 away, though their recent 4-1 win over Charlotte shows attacking potential remains. BTTS has landed in 60% of their matches, while H2H history also supports goals, with 70% of meetings seeing both teams score.
As DC United are slightly stronger at home, with Baribo in form, we predict Home Win, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (very high goal averages on both sides).
This MLS match will be played on Sunday 26 April 2026 at 00:30.
