St Louis City to Win
The top St. Louis City vs Cincinnati predictions this week are based on coach Bradley Carnell’s desire to make a name for himself in MLS. Being a newly established team has its perks and one of them certainly is the fact that everyone underestimates you. Perhaps that’s the reason behind St. Louis City’s recent success. After all, the team is currently in 2nd place in the Western Conference trailing by one point to Seattle Sounders. If Cincinnati want to keep their first place in the Eastern Conference, they’ll have to somehow stop Joao Klauss who has been an unstoppable juggernaut this season.
BTTS
When you take into account how entertaining St. Louis City were to watch so far, you can’t help but agree with our top St. Louis City vs Cincinnati predictions. The only team to actually outscore coach Bradley Carnell’s boys is Columbus Crew in the Eastern Conference who found the net on 17 occasions.
However, scoring 15 in seven games is also quite the feat and we’re sure we’re in for a treat on Sunday when the two teams collide. It will be a first-ever game between the two teams and it’s hard to predict how exactly the two managers will cope with pressure but one thing is certain – there will be plenty of goals as Cincinnati have already scored nine themselves.

Draw odds: +265 – 26.5%

The newly established team will surely be the one dictating the game on the 16th of April.
St Louis City vs Cincinnati Lineups & Team News
St Louis City
Our primary St. Louis City vs Cincinnati predictions expect coach Bradley Carnell’s boys to cause another massive upset on Sunday. Everyone’s saying that St. Louis City’s beginner’s luck must soon run dry but is it really luck that’s keeping Carnell’s side going? The team is easily outplaying prolific MLS teams and it seems that Cincinnati will have a fierce rival on Sunday for sure.
Predicted lineup – Burki (GK), Bartlett, Nerwinski, Parker, Hiebert, Nelson, Perez, Lowen, Vassilev, Klauss & Gioacchini
Cincinnati
Pat Noonan’s boys are soaring high in the Eastern Conference as after seven matches played, Cincinnati won five times, drew two games, and didn’t lose a single game. It will take one hell of a performance from St. Louis City to cause a dent in Cincinnati’s title ambitions but as long as Noonan’s boys stay true to their ultra-defensive style that brought them a massive 1-0 victory over the 2022 title runner-up Philly, they should do just fine.
Predicted lineup – Celentano (GK), Hagglund, Miazga, Mosquera, Barreal, Moreno, Angulo, Arias, Acosta, Vazquez & Brenner
Starting Lineups

*Starting lineups are usually announced 1hr before the kick-off
Player to Watch: Joao Klauss
We called Joao Klauss an “unstoppable juggernaut” early on in our St. Louis City vs Cincinnati predictions. And we don’t regret our words. With five goals this season, he’s the leading St. Louis City striker and we’re sure Bradley Carnell will rely heavily on his undeniable finishing skills to be the difference-maker on the 16th of April against Cincinnati.
