Vancouver Whitecaps
The Vancouver Whitecaps are currently in good form, sitting in 2nd position in the league with 10 points from their first 5 games. In their last 6 matches, they have recorded 3 wins, 2 draws, and only 1 loss, showing a consistent level of performance. The team has been involved in some high-scoring encounters, with their most recent match against the Portland Timbers ending in a thrilling 3-2 victory for the Whitecaps. Their attacking prowess is evident, as they have scored 11 goals in their last 6 games, averaging 1.83 goals per game. However, their defense has been somewhat leaky, conceding 7 goals in the same period, with an average of 1.17 goals conceded per game. Interestingly, both teams have scored in 83% of their recent matches, indicating that the Whitecaps' games have been entertaining for neutral fans.
Toronto FC
Toronto FC currently sit 5th in the league table, having collected 10 points from their first 6 games of the season. Their recent form has been inconsistent, with a pattern of alternating wins and losses in their last four matches. However, they did manage to put together a three-game winning streak prior to that, which included two away victories and a home win against Charlotte FC. Defensively, Toronto FC have been solid, keeping four clean sheets in their last six games and conceding just 0.83 goals per game on average. Despite their low-scoring affairs, with 67% of their matches featuring under 2.5 goals, they did have one particularly high-scoring game in their most recent outing, a 3-1 home defeat against Sporting Kansas City.

Recent home/away form
Vancouver Whitecaps
The Vancouver Whitecaps have had a mixed run of form in their recent home games, with a notable streak of four consecutive draws before suffering a defeat and then bouncing back with a win in their latest match against the Portland Timbers. While they have managed to maintain a solid second position in the league with 10 points from 5 games, their home performances have been characterized by a high frequency of both teams scoring, with 100% of their last 6 home games seeing both sides find the back of the net. Despite this, the majority of their matches have been low-scoring affairs, with 67% of the games featuring under 2.5 goals. The Whitecaps' most recent home victory against the Timbers, which ended 3-2, stands out as a particularly high-scoring encounter compared to their other home games in this period.
Toronto FC
Toronto FC's recent away form has been poor, with the team suffering a run of three consecutive defeats against New York City FC, Charlotte FC, and New York Red Bulls, all by a scoreline of 3-0. These high-scoring losses highlight Toronto's defensive struggles on the road. However, they did manage to secure a 1-0 win against New England Revolution and a goalless draw against FC Cincinnati in their two most recent away matches, suggesting a potential improvement in their defensive solidity. Despite this, their overall away record remains disappointing, with only one win, one draw, and four losses in their last six games, scoring just two goals while conceding 11.
