Nashville SC vs FC Cincinnati Prediction: A possible draw

Nashville welcome FC Cincinnati to the Geodis Park for round 5 of the new campaign. These two sides have been good this term, especially Cincinnati, who have not recorded a defeat in all 4 matches this season. Nashville were on a 3-match unbeaten streak, before they lost 1-0 against New England Revolution in their last game. And for Nashville, their perfect record remains intact, as they have 2 wins and 2 draws in all 4 matches so far. Nashville will be anxious to get back to winning ways and Cincinnati are concerned about keeping their record for the 5th match. Who will come out on top here?

Nashville SC have not done a terrible job, losses are bound to happen and it did in their last game. Nashville had 2 wins and 1 draw in the opening 3 matches before the loss against New England Revolution in their last game. In their last 5 matches, they had 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss.

In their 1-0 loss to New England Revolution, Nashville showed dominance in possession, taking over 52% possession, but had fewer shots on target (3) and 3 corner kicks by the end of 90 minutes. Gustavo Bou scored the only goal for the hosts in the 52nd minute.

Nashville are 4th in the Eastern Conference table, with 8 points from 4 matches.

Team Streaks:- less than 2.5 goals (7/8), less than 4.5 cards (8/9).

FC Cincinnati are up there in the list of best teams this season, as they have had a very good start to the campaign. They are yet to record a loss after 4 matches and their record is; 2 wins and 2 draws. In their last 5 matches, they have 2 draws, 2 wins and 1 loss. Cincinnati played a 3-3 draw against Chicago Fire in their last match. Junior Moreno scored a brace and Sergio Santos scored one to give Cincinnati the draw. Cincinnati had 59% possession, with 8 shots on target and 6 corner kicks. Safe to say they totally deserved the result and more.

Cincinnati are 3rd in the Eastern Conference, with 8 points from 4 matches.

Team streaks:- no losses (4), more than 2.5 goals (6/8), less than 4.5 cards (6/8).

According to head-to-head statistics, these two have played 7 matches against each other till date. Nashville SC have 4 wins, while FC Cincinnati have 1 win and 2 matches ended in a draw.

• Nashville are without a clean sheet in 4 meetings.
• Cincinnati are without a clean sheet in 7 meetings.
• More than 2.5 goals were scored in 6/7 meetings.
• Both teams scored in 6/7 meetings.
• Less than 4.5 cards were shown in 7/7 meetings.

I think there’s nothing much to separate these two despite Cincinnati being higher on the standings. Cincinnati’s run will come to an end someday and today might just be that day. I think Nashville playing at home gives them extra advantage but Cincinnati are coming with a lot of confidence. It will be interesting to see how this ends, but i peg both teams to play out a draw.
