We've reached Decision Day in the Major League Soccer regular season. The time is now for those teams still looking to secure a postseason place. One team that is not is Nashville. The men from Music City secured their play-off fate long ago, and no matter what happens here, they'll be ending the regular season as the number-one team in the Eastern Conference. For the Orange and Blue, there's work to be done. Right now, they're in the top seven, but if they fail to win this, they could drop into the play-out places.
At odds of +190, a solid betting option ahead of this game is 'Evander to Score'. The Brazilian will be keen to help his team get over the line in the race for the postseason, and if he continues to show the same level of hunger as he has in recent games, he could easily find the net against a Nashville team that will already be focusing on the more important task of competing in the postseason.

Our FC Cincinnati vs Nashville SC Prediction
One of the most gifted offensive players currently operating in Major League Soccer, Evander was always going to thrive this season, and thrive he has, scoring and assisting 31 goals in all competitions. He hasn't scored too frequently in recent weeks, but he did recently get back amongst the goals against DC United, while he's shown a serious appetite for more in his last two games, shooting eight times.
Given his numbers and the fact that his team are playing a home against a team that won't really care what happens, the Brazilian looks a little generously priced at +190.
