FC Cincinnati v Orlando City SC Betting Tips [24 June 2022]

Cincinnati haven’t had the best of times; they will hope for some reprieve when they host Orlando City in their next game in the MLS. Orlando City have had the better run and go into this game placed fourth in the Eastern Conference while Cincinnati have 20 points, in eighth place. Cincinnati have one of the most porous defences in the MLS; in 15 matches, they’ve conceded 26 goals and they approach this game winless in the last three outings. They actually have one win only in the last five matches and have no clean sheet in the process. Cincinnati have let in three or more goals in three of their last five matches, a really poor return in defence, but they’ve scored in each of the five matches too. Both teams have scored in Cincinnati’s last five games and four of their last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals.

Orlando City are coming from a 2-1 win over Houston Dynamo. This was their first win in four league matches. Just like Cincinnati, they’ve failed to keep a clean sheet in the last five matches but have scored in each one of the five games. They go into this one having conceded two or more in two of the last five and both teams have scored in each of the five matches. Three of their last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals and they have a better run away from home in the league. Orlando City have suffered just one loss in five away league games, keeping two clean sheets with two matches producing over 2.5 goals. In 10 matches across all competitions, Orlando City have managed just one clean sheet – in a 1-0 away win over Toronto.

Two sides with not so solid backlines are set to face off and they go into the game on the back of high scoring games. Orlando City have done better in recent matches and they should feel like the favorites here, but Cincinnati have a good attack and can shock them too. Both teams scoring looks real here.
