FC Cincinnati vs. New York City FC 2024 MLS Odds, Time, and Prediction

The FC Cincinnati vs. New York City FC game is a duel between two teams that started the 2024 MLS season badly, but which have really good players on the roster.

FC Cincinnati Players Love Playing at Home

Cincy is 2-2-0 overall with both of its draws happening at home. It’s interesting that these guys haven’t won a home game in the 2024 MLS given that they’re famous for being great on their turf.

Last season, for example, they went 13-2-2 at TQL Stadium, with both losses, as well as one of those draws, happening in their final four home games of the 2023 regular season.

The last time they won an MLS game in Cincy was in November last year. However, judging by FC Cincinnati vs. NYCFC odds, they’re going to win Saturday’s game. It’s not just that they’re playing at home, but they’ve been playing better soccer than their next opponent.

NYCFC Not Looking Great in 2024 Despite Great Roster

New York City FC is 1-0-3 in the 2024 MLS season with their only win happening in the previous round. It happened on their turf against Toronto FC, which was the worst team in the MLS last season. On the road, these guys are 0-0-2 this season, with a score differential of 0-3.

Despite not playing great soccer, NYCFC does have a pretty decent squad in 2024. Unfortunately, their most valuable player, Talles Magno, will miss Saturday’s game due to injury.

In addition to the left winger, NYCFC will also miss Keaton Parks. The reason why the defensive midfielder will skip the game in Cincinnati is that he’s suspended.

FC Cincinnati vs. New York City FC Prediction

Both teams are very good offensively, which is why we’re almost certain we’ll see over 2.5 goals in the FC Cincinnati vs. New York City FC game this coming Saturday. But which team will score more?

Our prediction is Cincy. Not only are they playing on their turf, but they do have better players than NYCFC, especially given that Magno and Parks are out.

Pick: FC Cincinnati & Over 2.5 Goals
