FC Cincinnati at Philadelphia Union 10/7/20 - MLS Picks & Predictions

Philadelphia saw their undefeated streak come to an end in Toronto mid-week but will now return home for their next assignment. They will play host to Cincinnati on Wednesday, who are coming off back to back losses on the road without even scoring.

Philadelphia (8-3-4) took an early lead in their away match against Toronto FC but their opponents overturned the lead in their favor. That 1-2 loss put an end to Philadelphia’s five-match undefeated streak (4-0-1), where they also kept three clean sheets. Philadelphia are now sitting at the 4th spot of the Eastern Conference with 28 points, scoring 25 and conceding 13 goals. They have a solid 5-0-1 record at home, scoring 13 goals and conceding just four in the process.

Cincinnati (3-8-4) conceded a goal in each half of their away match against Minnesota United. They have now lost two in a row and have not scored any goals in their last three. Moreover, they have won just one of their 11 matches after the MLS is Back tournament. Cincinnati are sitting at the 12th spot of the East with 13 points, scoring just eight goals and conceding 23 goals so far. They have a poor 2-7-0 record on the road, scoring six and conceding 19 goals.

The two teams split the points in a goal-less draw in Cincinnati earlier in the season, while last season it was Philadelphia who won both matches (with clean sheets). Philadelphia should be able to return to wining ways against a struggling Cincinnati side.
