It was a truly spectacular match for Cincinnati FC; in the 80th minute, Mbappo equalized with a stunning curling shot that nestled into the top corner. Then Gidi put them ahead just six minutes later, and Riquelme Fillipi leveled the score for Miami, denying the Red and Orange the joy of victory. Even so, it was a useful draw at Nu Stadium.

With that point, Noonan's team sits in eighth place with two regular season games remaining and would mathematically secure their playoff spot with a win against the Philadelphia Union on the last day of October. However, the upcoming game at TQL Stadium looks like a close contest, and the odds at the sportsbooks reflect this.

The Philadelphia Union is coming off a scoreless draw against Nashville; they had previously lost to the New England Revolution, but before that, they had enjoyed a 15-game unbeaten streak in MLS, which propelled them to their current sixth-place position.

Our FC Cincinnati vs Philadelphia Union Prediction

With the memory of September 9th fresh, when the Philadelphia Union crushed Cincinnati 5-0 at Subaru Park, they will certainly be emboldened for Sunday's match. That game saw Damiani score a hat trick and Nwobodo get sent off.

Fortunately for Cincinnati, the match could be affected by the absence of two key Philadelphia players: Iloski, due to a muscle injury, and Sullivan, due to an ankle injury.

Our prediction for FC Cincinnati vs Philadelphia Union is: Draw.
