DC United team news and form: Unbeatable DC!
Sure, the team is currently in 9th place, but we have to give credit where it’s due and say that no MLS side has managed to get the better of DC this season. With one win and three draws since the start of the season, Lesesne’s players seem to be on a row.
Predicted lineup: Kim (GK), Rowles, Herrera, Bartlett, Schnegg, Enow, Kijima, Stroud, Pirani, Benteke & Peglow

Player to watch: Christian Benteke
Christian Benteke’s performance at Audi Field last week was interesting to observe. He squandered all of his goalscoring opportunities and as a result, failed to register a goal. However, things will be different on the 23rd of March, as both clubs need points.
Second player to watch: Martin Ojeda
The Lions’ Martin Ojeda bagged two goals for coach Pareja since the start of the season. He has the quality to prove our professional Orlando City vs DC United predictions correct, as he is without a doubt one of the key players on the team.
