FC Cincinnati and DC United meet in MLS action from Nippert Stadium on Friday night.

FC Cincinnati come into this one looking to build on a decent showing in the MLS is Back tournament, after opening with a 4-0 loss to rival Columbus Crew, Cincinnati shut out Atlanta United and the New York Red Bulls on the way to a 2-0-1 record and a spot in the knockout rounds.

There’s not much history to go off of for this head-to-head, as last year was the only reference we had and Cincinnati were god awful last year. However, Cincinnati has started to turn things around as it was evident in the MLS is Back tournament, and DC United is always a potent threat in front of goal. I think we see some goals here between two sides that can score that also have some shaky goaltending, so give me the over here.
