DC United vs Toronto FC
📖 The Preview
DC United look the more likely side here, but this one's got draw written all over it. Their recent form is heavy on stalemates, and Toronto, despite their poor run, tend to keep things tight enough to nick something. Toronto are dealing with a fair few doubts up front with Cimermancic, Gomis, Pereira, Palacio and Stefanovic all carrying knocks, which limits what they can offer going forward. Expect both sides to find the net once, but neither to push for a winner. Classic 1-1, job done, everyone goes home mildly frustrated.
