Saturday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me make my return to the MLS, and I’ve highlighted a goals-based selection in one of the fixtures.
⚽️ Nashville SC vs FC Cincinnati
🇺🇸 MLS
⏰ Sunday 30 August, 01:30
Goals look guaranteed at Geodis Park on Saturday night as Eastern Conference leaders Nashville entertain FC Cincinnati.
B. J. Callaghan’s hosts have scored 43 goals across their opening 21 encounters in the MLS this campaign, with an impressive 32 (74%) of them coming in front of their supporters.
The Boys in Gold have made the net bulge in all 11 (100%) of their MLS clashes on home soil – scoring 2+ goals in nine (82%) of them – and will be confident of adding to their impressive goal tally at home against a Cinci backline that has kept a solitary shutout since the opening day of the season, shipping 47 goals.
Pat Noonan’s visitors are the joint-highest scorers in the MLS this campaign, firing in 49 goals across their opening 21 fixtures, with 18 (37%) of them coming on the road.
The Orange and Blue have made the net bulge in each of their previous 18 clashes in the MLS – firing multiple strikes in 13 (72%) of them – and will look to continue their scintillating form in front of goal against a Nashville backline that has kept just three clean sheets at home this season.

Bet of the Day
Nashville’s opening 11 MLS fixtures on home soil this campaign have produced a whopping 44 goals, with Over 2.5 Goals landing in nine (82%) of them, whilst eight (73%) of those have also seen goals at both ends.
After seeing just four goals scored across their opening three MLS clashes this term, Cincinnati’s next 18 have averaged a staggering 5.11 goals per game, with Both Teams to Score landing in 17 (94%) of them, whilst 14 (78%) have also gone Over 2.5 Goals.
Both Teams to Score & Over 2.5 Goals has also paid out in each of the previous three meetings between these two sides, and I’m backing that trend to continue in Tennessee on Saturday night.
- Both Teams to Score & Over 2.5 Goals
- Pays 4/5 (bet365)
