On Saturday evening, two teams looking to kick on following wins last weekend will go head-to-head at TQL Stadium. FC Cincinnati plays host to NYCFC in what is an intriguing match-up. The hosts are the early moneyline favourites, which is hard to argue with. To be honest, it's not too difficult to feel that the home team should be even stronger in the market.

Our FC Cincinnati vs New York City Prediction

Saturday's visitors did deliver an improved display to get the better of Toronto FC at Yankee Stadium last weekend, but it would be wrong to say that they were overly convincing on that occasion. They showed more in terms of offensive productivity, but they still looked a little light at the back, while they struggled to really dominate. If we consider this in conjunction with their two away-day efforts so far this season, then fancying the hosts to come out on top here starts to get quite easy. After all, we're talking about a team that was fantastic on home soil last season, while for all they've not yet scored at home this season, Pat Noonan's men have remained strong at the back, while they've created plenty. Off the back of that confidence-boosting win last weekend, with starman Luciano Acosta now fit and prepped, the home team is the one to follow here.
