FC Cincinnati welcome DC United to the TQL Stadium for their MLS match. Cincinnati are looking to further cement their spot in the Round One qualification places, with DC looking to break into the top 9 of the Eastern Conference standings. Netiher side are in particularly great form. The Orange and Blue has won one of their last four MLS matches, and just two of their last six in all competitions. As for the Black and Red, they've failed to win any of their last five MLS fixtures, losing two and drawing three games in that run.
The spoils have been shared in the last six head-to-heads between these two sides. FC Cincinatti has won three of the last six games between the two, with DC winning two. This includes the last meeting between these sides, which DC United won away 2-1.
The home side are favorites to win this one. Cincinnati has won seven of their 11 home games in MLS this year, losing twice on home soil. Compare this with DC's away form, who have won twice on the road in MLS, and it's easy to see why the sportsbooks have priced the Orange and Blue as clear favorites. For us, though, it's not as clear cut. While DC has only won twice away, they've only lost twice away too with most games away from home ending in draws. Instead, we're looking at the Both Teams To Score market for our prediction.

Our FC Cincinnati vs DC United Prediction
We're expecting a close game when DC United travel to face FC Cincinnati. While the home side is clear favorite, we think it's likely that both teams will score in this one.
