As the MLS Cup playoffs heat up, Saturday promises thrilling encounters as the New York Red Bulls take on FC Cincinnati, while Dallas faces the Seattle Sounders. Let’s dive into our predictions for these intense matchups.
NY Red Bulls vs. Cincinnati (Saturday, 11.00pm)
In the second game of the best-of-three MLS Cup playoff series, the New York Red Bulls find themselves in a must-win situation as they host FC Cincinnati at Red Bull Arena.
Cincinnati gained the upper hand with a convincing 3-0 victory in the opening match, putting them one win away from reaching the Eastern Conference semi-finals for the second consecutive year.
- Prediction: New York Red Bulls 0-1 FC Cincinnati
Despite the pressure of a must-win situation, the Red Bulls are expected to play a patient and cautious game. However, we believe it won’t be sufficient to outperform a confident Cincinnati side that thrives in close contests.
Tip: Our tipsters predict over 1.5 goals.
Dallas vs. Seattle (Sunday, 1.00am)
Facing elimination, Dallas hosts the Seattle Sounders in the second game of their best-of-three MLS Cup playoff series at Toyota Stadium.
In the series opener, Seattle secured a 2-0 victory, putting them one win away from reaching the second round, a feat they haven’t accomplished since 2020.
- Prediction: Dallas 1-0 Seattle Sounders
The Sounders have never won an away playoff game against the Toros. We anticipate the home side to show more clinical finishing in the attack and maintain their solid defense at Toyota Stadium.
Tip: Our tipsters predict over 1.5 goals.
Stay tuned for these exciting MLS Cup playoff matchups, where every moment counts.
