Match Prediction- Nashville SC vs FC Cincinnati Betting Tips and Match Prediction
Help is on the way for Bob Bradley and his Toronto side, but with six teams to catch and little time left, it could be too little too late. Aside from a challenging 2-0 defeat to open July against the Seattle Sounders, this team have competed hard but lacked quality in the attacking third, without a goal in back-to-back games. It must sound like a broken record at this point, but Toronto still allow their share of clear-cut opportunities, conceding a goal in 50 of their last 51 MLS affairs, including at least one in each of their previous 29 fixtures.
If they want to take a positive from what has been a dismal defensive display this year, it could be the fact that they did not allow an opposing player to score against them last week, dropping a 1-0 decision to CF Montreal, because of an own goal from Lukas MacNaughton. Following a narrow 2-1 victory over Atlanta United near the end of June, TFC have conceded the opening goal in five straight matches, failing to tally in the first-half over that span.
Bono; Criscito, O’Neill, MacNaughton, Marshall-Rutty; Osorio, Bradley; Kaye; Jimenez, Insigne, Akinola
An enterprising display of quality in the opening half proved to be all for not last Sunday as the Crown could not put the Herons away and, as a result, are now chasing the final playoff spot in the East. Their 3-2 defeat in South Beach was only the second time in this campaign that Charlotte had blown a second-half advantage as they had usually done a good job at defending when in front before that game.
Even though it was only a friendly, you have to think that defeating a side like Chelsea on penalties in front of their home fans earlier this week should give them a big morale boost heading into this encounter. It will only be the second time they come to Canada for an MLS outing, and when they went up to Montreal near the end of June, this team were slow coming out of the gate, conceding a Romell Quioto strike after six minutes, eventually losing 2-1.
Kahlina; Fuchs, Walkes, Corujo; Lindsey; Bronico, Reyna, Ruiz, Bender, Swiderski, Shinyashiki
Charlotte should not have any problems finding a way through a defence who have conceded the second-most goals in MLS (38) and are not as great in attacking third on the road as they are at home.
TFC should get a considerable boost if Insigne finally hits the field, while we expect them to be able to contain a Charlotte attack, who are in good form but can be streaky at times, and in general still struggle on the road.
Toronto 2-1 Charlotte FC, as predicted by us.
