FC Cincinnati vs New York City Prediction & Picks - Major League Soccer
by Stephen Abiola | in Major League Soccer Picks
FC Cincinnati and New York City FC will face off in a decisive MLS playoff match on Saturday night at the TQL Stadium. Cincinnati raced to a 1-0 lead late last month after beating a 10-man New York City 1-0. However, they were far from their dominant best, only seeing 49% of ball possession. The city dwellers had their sweet revenge last weekend when they beat Cincinnati 3-1 at Citi Field to force a rematch on Saturday. The Boys in Blue outplayed Cincinnati in the middle of the park, handing Cincinnati their first defeat in Round 1 of the MLS playoffs. It’s worth noting that the Orange and Blue have never been eliminated in Round 1 of the playoffs. They have also kept three clean sheets in three of their last four postseason contests.

Our FC Cincinnati vs New York City Prediction
NYCFC has not crashed out of Round 1 since 2020 when they were bundled out of the completion by Orlando City on penalties. They have since won five of their seven postseason assignments, and Saturday will be their sixth meeting with Cincy across all competitions this season. During those six meetings, they lost all three visits to the TQL Stadium. FC Cincinnati will be without Matt Miazga and Nick Hagglund, who are both out with leg injuries. Overall, these are two teams that like to possess the ball and attack. However, FC Cincinnati should have a home advantage. Our prediction for FC Cincinnati vs New York City: FC Cincinnati to win.
