Toronto FC vs Minnesota United Predictions

Toronto had their first taste of defeat last weekend when they were edged out of a five-goal thriller by Seattle Sounders, and on Saturday they play host to a Minnesota United side that arrive unbeaten in their last two matches. The visitors picked up four points from back to back games against the New York clubs and will have been buoyed by Toronto’s first defeat of the campaign.

Altidore handed Toronto an early lead in Seattle, but the hosts equalised soon after and the teams went in level at the break. Seattle Sounders scored twice in two second half minutes to take control of the match, and despite Altidore ‘s second goal of the game twenty minutes from time, Toronto were unable to carve out an equaliser. The best of the action between Minnesota United and New York City took place during the first half, where five goals were scored. An own goal from Johnson and strikes from Alonso and Rodríguez saw the hosts Minnesota United lead 3-2 at the interval, but New York City scored the only goal of the second forty-five and the scoreline ended 3-3.

The limited history between these two clubs and their performances in the MLS this season, all point towards over 2.5 goals being scored on Saturday and a good chance that the game will end all square. Over 2.5 goals have been scored in each of the two previous encounters between these two clubs, while Toronto’s last five and Minnesota United’s last six matches have also seen over 2.5 goals. Toronto have drawn two of their last four home games and Minnesota United drew their last match against New York City 3-3. The visitors have lost two of their last three away games and Toronto have only lost once so far this season, which suggests a draw might be the best Minnesota United can hope for this weekend.

Altidore top scores for Toronto this season with five goals, while Quintero’s three penalties are enough to see him lead the way in front of goal for Minnesota United. We’re confident that over 2.5 goals will be scored in Saturday’s game, and have predicted a final scoreline of 2-2. Both of these teams have been scoring and conceding for fun of late, and their only previous two encounters both saw over 2.5 goals and both teams score. Both teams have managed to keep one clean sheet in their last six matches, and we can’t see wither improving on that record this weekend.
