Columbus Crew entered this match in strong form, despite recently losing 4-0 to the Seattle Sounders, a loss that broke their eight-game winning streak across all contests. This included winning their first-ever Leagues Cup trophy and delivering a series of solid performances to top the Eastern Conference.
Offensively, Columbus have been one of MLS’ most resourceful teams this term, delivering 52 goals, the second-highest total in the Eastern Conference. Their forward Hernandez has been the major driving force behind this achievement. On the defensive end, Crew have done well too, giving up only 28 goals; the lowest in MLS.
Betting On FC Cincinnati
- 1XBet Spread: 0
- 1XBet Over/Under: Under 3.5
- 1XBet Moneyline: 2.23
FC Cincinnati entered this game driven, after ending a four-game losing streak with an important 4-1 victory in their last outing. They gained confidence after a poor stretch of form that followed their superior win over inter Miami in July. Despite struggling, Cincinnati is still in second position in the Eastern Conference with 51 points from 27 matches, recording 16 wins, three draws and eight losses. Now they must preserve their Supporter’s Shield hope.
Luciano Acosta has headed Cincinnati’s offensive strength this season. Acosta leads the team and the league in assists, while also being the club’s top goalscorer although he missed the last match due to a yellow card suspension. The hosts’ defence is a source of worry, conceding 36 goals this campaign.
MatchPlug Prediction For Columbus Crew VS FC Cincinnati
Cincinnati has made a recent resurgence and has a home advantage that should give them an edge in this game, despite their weak defence.
Final Prediction: FC Cincinnati Moneyline.
