Nashville SC at Louisville City 6/20/18 - US Open Cup Picks & Predictions

Louisville City pulled a nice upset in the previous round of the US Open Cup, when they eliminated an MLS side. They have been in terrific form in all competitions lately and will now face Nashville SC in the round of 16 of the competition. Nashville SC also eliminated an MLS side in the previous round, and this is the only match that features two teams from the USL.

Louisville City fought really hard in the previous round against MLS side New England Revolution. Their opponents took the lead twice in the fist half of that match, but Louisville City managed to equalize on both occasions. They eventually scored the winning goal at the 62nd minute and made it through to the next round. Louisville City have been in really solid form lately, as they are undefeated in their last seven matches in all competitions (5-0-2). Moreover, they have kept four clean sheets in that span. On the other hand, Nashville SC were also up against an MLS side in the previous round of the US Open Cup. However, they had a pretty easy job against the Colorado Rapids, whom they defeated by 0-2 at home. They took the lead at the 39th minute when Colorado scored an own goal and finished off with another goal at the 78th minute. Nashville SC are now undefeated in their last eleven matches in all competitions (7-0-4), keeping six clean sheets in the process.

The two teams have already met twice for the USL so far in the season and have exchanged 0-2 home wins. Both teams are riding on undefeated streaks, but Louisville City have been dominant at home so far in the season. They have slightly better chances to win this one.
