DC United will be looking to build on their impressive victory over Philadelphia Union when they travel to the Q2 Stadium on Sunday to take on Austin FC. 

After finishing bottom of the Eastern Conference table last season,  expectations were extremely low among DC fans coming into the new campaign, especially after a few unconvincing pre season displays. However, an early goal from striker Tai Baribo plus a resolute defensive display saw them secure a hugely unlikely opening win over the side that topped the conference in 2025. 

After being eliminated in the first round of the playoffs last season, Austin have made some key offseason acquisitions (including Joseph Rosales and Jayden Nelson) as they look to go further this time around. And whilst Nico Estévez's side did not enjoy the same opening day success as DC, they did secure a valuable 2-2 draw at home to a strong Minnesota United outfit.

Our Austin FC vs DC United Prediction

It's early days, but we are expecting DC to be greatly improved from the side that finished bottom of the Eastern Conference last season. 

Similarly, we are also tipping Austin to enjoy a successful campaign, as they look to improve on last season's first round MLS Cup exit. 

Based on both sides' performances last weekend, this should be an entertaining and high quality encounter. However, picking a victor is extremely tricky, so we are going to hedge our bets and predict a draw. 

Our prediction for Austin FC vs DC United is: Draw.
