Toronto FC are in a desperate solution for their very poor form and there is a strong doubt that they will be able to turn their fortunes around. They lost their 4th game in a row against Orlando City and now they will face Saint Louis City who are eager to continue their win streak.
Saint Louis City have won back-to-back games against San Jose Earthquakes and Colorado Rapids and a third looks more likely here as Toronto are in very poor form. Saint Louis City are yet to prove they are back at their very best despite their back-to-back wins and a win here might help them do that.
Saint Louis City are far superior to Toronto FC according to the table. They are 4th on the table with 35 points, while Toronto FC are 27th with 19 points.
