  • Three back-to-back Orlando City vs DC United matches resulted in over 3.5 total goals.
  • We saw over 3.5 total goals in Orlando City’s last MLS match.

The fact that the Lions shared the spoils with New York Red Bulls via a 2-2 tie last week is a huge plus in favor of our professional Orlando City vs DC United prediction. We expect to see more of the same at Exploria Stadium, as it doesn’t seem like there’s much separating these two right now.

  • HOME: -128 – 55.2%
  • DRAW: +290 – 24.8%
  • AWAY: +320 – 20.0%

*These Orlando City vs DC United odds are subject to change

Orlando City are the expected winners at Exploria Stadium, as the Lions’ odds are priced at -128, giving them a whopping 55.2% win probability before the start of the game. However, we believe a draw at +290 is far more likely to be the case.

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.
