New York City FC player Hagglund asserts that all teams will showcase their top performance in the upcoming FC Cincinnati match.
FC Cincinnati is gearing up for a crucial Eastern Conference clash against New York City FC (NYCFC) this Saturday at TQL Stadium. The Ohio-based side is eager to extend their lead at the top of the conference, while NYCFC aims to continue their impressive away form.
NYCFC has shown resilience on the road this season, gaining points in three of five games after trailing at half-time. This was evident last weekend when they came from behind to defeat Nashville SC 2-1. The City Boys have also been unbeaten in their last four away league matches, winning three, and have won two of their last three away games.
Alonso Martinez, a Costa Rica international, has been instrumental in NYCFC's success this season. He has scored 13 goals and registered one assist in 22 appearances, including scoring in his last three consecutive games across all competitions. Martinez, along with Evander, who has scored the second most multi-goal games against Corinthians in the 2023 season, will pose a significant threat to FC Cincinnati's defence.
However, FC Cincinnati will take heart from their recent form. They secured a 3-2 win in their last match, ending a three-match winless run across all competitions. Moreover, they have kept clean sheets in five of their last six home matches against NYCFC in all competitions.
Evander, who ranks third in the MLS scoring charts with 16 goals this season, will be crucial for FC Cincinnati's offensive efforts. A win on Saturday would surpass their total home victories from last season (seven).
The Opta win probability for the match favors FC Cincinnati at 54.8%, with a 23.3% chance of a draw and a 21.9% chance for NYCFC. With both teams in form and hungry for victory, this promises to be an exciting contest.
A win for FC Cincinnati could see them extend their lead at the top of the Eastern Conference, while NYCFC will be aiming to continue their impressive away form and close the gap on the leaders. This Saturday's match at TQL Stadium is not to be missed.
