Cincinnati are having a tough time adjusting to life in the MLS and are coming off yet another loss. They have been really bad over the past month or so and will now return home after playing four of their last five on the road. They will host the NY Red Bulls on Saturday, who are coming off a tough draw at home but have been really strong lately.

Cincinnati (3-8-2) were lucky enough to take the lead in Orlando but their opponents ripped them apart in the second half to force them to a 1-5 loss. That was the sixth loss in the last seven matches for Cincinnati, who have scored in just two of those matches. They are sitting at the bottom of the Eastern Conference with 11 points, one behind New England. They have a 2-2-1 record at home, where they failed to score in both losses. The NY Red Bulls (5-5-3) are coming off a really frustrating 2-2 draw at home against Vancouver, but it was a pretty balanced match. The Red Bulls have been in really strong shape lately, undefeated in their last three (2-0-1) and losing just once in their last six (4-1-1). They are now sitting at the 5th spot of the Eastern Conference with 18 points, two behind Atlanta. But the Red Bulls have not been anything special on the road so far (1-2-2), failing to keep a clean sheet.

This will be the second match between the two sides, with the Red Bulls having won by 0-1 at home earlier in the season. They have been in really good shape lately as opposed to Cincinnati who are struggling mightily. I will take the Under 2.75 Goals on this one as I expect a careful match here.
