Cincinnati vs DC United Betting Tips & Picks
Coach Wayne Rooney and his players will try to put a dent in Cincinnati’s title ambitions on the 7th of May at TQL Stadium. Will the visitors succeed? Find out the answer to that question in the following Cincinnati vs DC United predictions.

BTTS
We highly doubt coach Wayne Rooney’s boys will fall from scoring three past Charlotte’s goalkeeper last week to scoring none versus Cincinnati on matchday 11. Our first Cincinnati vs DC United prediction says the game at Audi Field is destined to be an action-packed 90 minutes.
The last match between Cincinnati and DC United was held at Audi Field and it ended with a solid 2-5 win for Pat Noonan’s boys. It’s unlikely that Cincinnati will be able to replicate such a tremendous display but the chances for both teams to find the net are certainly high.
Cincinnati to Win
Before we go any further with this Cincinnati vs DC United prediction, you should know that Wayne Rooney’s side is the one with the head-to-head advantage. The two teams locked horns on eight occasions in the past. They resulted in four DC United wins, three goalless ties, and only one Cincinnati victory.
However, Cincinnati’s triumph was the last game between the two teams. The match on the 9th of October, 2022, ended with a brutal 2-5 win for coach Pat Noonan and his boys. They had full control at Audi Field and could’ve easily scored a bunch more to make DC United’s pain even greater.

Cincinnati vs DC United Lineups & Team News
Cincinnati
Cincinnati’s 1-1 tie against New England Revolution last week was the fairest result we’ve seen recently. The two teams had five shots on target each with hosts New England having a tad advantage in possession. With two first-half goals, the match between the two ended without a victor and we expect coach Pat Noonan’s boys to search for the three points at home against DC United.
Predicted lineup – Celentano (GK), Mosquera, Miazga, Hagglund, Gaddis, Nwobodo, Moreno, Barreal, Acosta, Santos & Vazquez
DC United
Despite having twice as many shots as Charlotte, DC United didn’t deserve to win 3-0. The visitors at Audi Field had a whopping 59.0% possession and seven shots at target. Sure, only one of those seven shots actually made Miller sweat but we still believe Charlotte deserved a consolation goal, if not anything else. Coach Wayne Rooney’s boys were fortunate to get such a victory but our Cincinnati vs DC United predictions say it’s time for the luck to run out.
Predicted lineup – Miller (GK), Palsson, Birnbaum, Pines, Najar, Klich, Canouse, O’Brien, Santos, Benteke & Fountas

Player to Watch: Christian Benteke
Contradictory to our top Cincinnati vs DC United predictions, the player to watch on Sunday is part of coach Wayne Rooney’s roster. Former Liverpool and Crystal Palace goalscorer-in-chief Christian Benteke is having a solid 2023 MLS season.
DC United’s leading goalscorer scored five goals and provided a teammate with an assist. His tally implies that the 32-year-old Belgian player is responsible for 35% of DC United’s goals this season.
If Cincinnati want to prove the bookies right and get the expected three points, containing Christian Benteke should be a priority at TQL Stadium.
