Orlando City vs Toronto FC Predictions

• Orlando are unbeaten in six at home (W3, D3).
• Toronto have lost their last three games.
• Toronto have failed to score in five of their last eight away from home.

Orlando looking to strengthen hold on playoff place

Orlando City are inside the top six in the Eastern Conference and they can boost their playoff bid by seeing off struggling Toronto in midweek.

The hosts are unbeaten in their last six at home, winning three of those games, while Toronto arrive in Florida after a run of three straight losses.

Orlando have postseason potential

The hosts lost four of their opening 10 games but have just one defeat in 10 since, and that loss came at the hands of a strong New England Revolution outfit.

City’s recent form suggests they could be outside contenders for overall MLS Cup glory this year. In contrast, Toronto’s postseason hopes are already looking slim as they sit seven points behind DC United in ninth.

The Canadian side have only won three MLS games this term but they were picking up points regardless, with 10 draws so far. However, their form has dipped of late and they’ve lost their last three games – conceding six goals and scoring just once themselves in the process – so a home win stands out here.

City can win without conceding

Toronto have failed to score in two of their last three games and in five of their last eight fixtures away from home.

Orlando have scored 11 goals in their last six home games so a routine 2-0 victory for the home side is the correct score prediction.

City striker Facundo Torres is a man in form with five goals in his last four games, and he managed a goal for Uruguay during the last international weekend in June, so back him to add to his account when Toronto visit the Exploria Stadium.
