Prediction: 1-1
Nashville
Buoyed by a 2-1 win over Philadelphia Union, Orlando City will try to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Nashville on Sunday morning. The Lions did well to put an end to their three-game winless run, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence, but they face a difficult task against Nashville. All Cartagena, Freeman, Gallese, Halliday, Torres, and Williams are back from international duties, while midfielder Favian Loyola misses out with a thigh problem.
Gary Smith’s troops, on the other hand, aim to make amends for back-to-back losses to New England Revolution and Cincinnati, and seeing that they are likely to go for a win in Sunday’s encounter, both teams to score betting option should be considered. In their last meeting at the venue in MLS the two teams played out a 1-1 draw. Both Randall Leal and Nick DePuy are out of contention with injuries.
