Austin to Win
After the dreadful away game versus Seattle Sounders, it’s time for coach Josh Wolff’s boys to take a breather at home. And that’s what the Toronto clash will probably be for Austin. It’s not like Austin are thriving these days. The team is in 12th place in the Western Conference with 10 points to its name but Toronto’s display has been lacking quality this entire season long.
A quick check at the rankings tells us that coach Bob Bradley’s boys are at the very bottom of the Eastern Conference with two victories, six draws, and four losses in 12 official games. You’d expect more from a team with such tremendous players, yet, our Austin vs Toronto predictions are entirely behind the home side.
Over 2.5 Goals
How can we possibly expect the brawl at Q2 Stadium to be a lackluster event when we know the names that will be among the two managers’ starters? First of all, we have the 2022 MLS top scorer, Sebastian Driussi, leading Austin’s attack. He averaged 0.65 goals last season so he’ll surely try to defend his throne in the 2023 campaign.
Furthermore, coach Bob Bradley came prepared with a dynamic duo of his own. The Lorenzo Insigne – Federico Bernardeschi partnership needs no introduction as the two players have proven their worth time and time again in Serie A so it’ll be surprising if our Austin vs Toronto betting tips fail this week.

Austin odds: -110 – 51.0%
Draw odds: +270 – 26.0%
Toronto odds: +295 – 23.0%
A draw is valued at +270 and it has a 26.0% chance of success while coach Bob Bradley’s boys have barely acquired a 23.0% win probability ahead of Sunday’s brawl. That’s the level of confidence the bookmakers have in Toronto snatching the three points. Meanwhile, it’s Austin who are the bookies’ expected winners with a 51.0% win chance on the 21st of May and we are happy to see them agree with our Austin vs Toronto predictions.
Austin vs Toronto Lineups & Team News
Austin
As we mentioned earlier in our Austin vs Toronto predictions, coach Josh Wolff’s boys have been lacking consistency and that’s why we see them rank 12th. However, they do have a postponed game yet to be played so if a win is achieved, Austin’s fans will rejoice at the fact that their team has skyrocketed to 9th or 8th.
Predicted lineup – Stuver (GK), Ring, Cascante, Vaisanen, Lundqvist, Pereira, Valencia, Gallagher, Rigoni, Redes & Zardes
Toronto
The only thing keeping Bob Bradley’s job is his spotless reputation. However, he can’t keep relying on that as the board demand results. And so far, he’s not living up to the expectations. Toronto are at the bottom of the table in the Western Conference and they’ll have the pressure to succeed at Q2 Stadium.
Predicted lineup – Johnson (GK), Laryea, Mabika, Kaye, Marshall-Rutty, Servania, Osorio, Franklin, Insigne, Bernardeschi & Sapong

Player to Watch: Sebastian Driussi
Austin’s Driussi is an unstoppable juggernaut at his best. And he’s been enjoying the best days of his career in the past two years.
During the 37 games he was featured in the 2022 MLS campaign, Sebastian Druissi managed to bag 25 goals for Austin which earned him the top goalscorer award. He was close to losing it as Philadelphia Union’s Daniel Gazdag was right on his tail with 24 goals but in the end, it was Driussi who had the last laugh.
The fact that he’ll undoubtedly have confidence soaring through the roof gives us faith that our Austin vs Toronto predictions might succeed.
