Recent form
Nashville SC
Nashville SC's recent form shows a notable improvement after a challenging period. They have won their last two Major League Soccer matches, keeping clean sheets in both games, which marks a positive turnaround following a three-game losing streak across all competitions. The team's defensive performance has been particularly impressive in these recent victories, conceding no goals. However, their overall goal-scoring record remains a concern, with only 4 goals in their last 6 matches (0.67 per game). The majority of their recent games (83%) have seen under 2.5 goals, indicating a trend towards low-scoring encounters. While there were no exceptionally high-scoring games, the 3-0 loss to Orlando City stands out as their heaviest defeat in this period. The team's ability to bounce back from this setback with two consecutive wins demonstrates resilience and could signal a potential upturn in their league form.
FC Cincinnati
FC Cincinnati's recent form has been mixed, with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses in their last 6 games. Their goal-scoring and defensive records are perfectly balanced, having scored and conceded 9 goals each, averaging 1.5 goals per game in both categories. The team has shown the ability to be involved in high-scoring matches, as evidenced by their 4-1 victory over CF Montréal and the 4-2 loss to Philadelphia Union. Interestingly, both teams have scored in 67% of these games, indicating that FC Cincinnati's matches tend to be competitive and entertaining. The team has managed only one clean sheet in this period, suggesting room for improvement in their defensive organization. With an equal split between games going over and under 2.5 goals, FC Cincinnati's matches have been unpredictable in terms of total goals scored.
