Orlando City will face off against FC Cincinnati tonight at 7:30 at TQL Stadium. This will be the second meeting between the two clubs this MLS season after the Lions took a difficult 2-1 home loss to Cincinnati early this year. Let’s take a deep dive into the strengths and weaknesses of FC Cincinnati.
Statistical Analysis
The Orange and Blue have performed much better offensively than in years past, currently ranking tied for ninth in MLS in goals scored this season (22). Much of the reason for this increase in offensive performance has been due to the relatively high number of scoring opportunities that Cincinnati has obtained as the team ranks eighth in shots taken (195).
