📰
Team News: D.C. United
From a largely available squad, there’s just the one fitness worry for the D.C. United boss Troy Lesesne to be concerned with. Jackson Hopkins (Ankle injury) won’t be in action.
We’re of the thinking that Black-and-Red seem most likely to utilise a 3-4-3 system, settling for Luis Barraza, Conner Antley, Lukas MacNaughton, Kye Rowles, Aaron Herrera, Boris Enow Takang, Brandon Servania, David Schnegg, Jared Stroud, Christian Benteke and Hosei Kijima.
🔮
Prediction
We believe that D.C. United might need a bit of good fortune to breach the defence of this Toronto FC side who will likely do enough to score at the other end and edge ahead.
We therefore fancy a highly competitive game with a 1-0 winning score for Toronto FC when the full-time whistle blows.
We’re expecting it to be that close.
