Analysis

Both model families pick FC Cincinnati, rating it at 54.5% — a consensus worth weighing, not a certainty.

The two have met 4 times, and FC Cincinnati won 1 of 4, with 1 drawn. 4 games is too small a sample to build on, so it doesn't feed the forecast.

They arrive from very different football. FC Cincinnati's last 5 produced 23 goals — 4.6 per game; they scored in 3 of them and conceded in 5. New York City FC's 5 produced 10, at 2.0 per game.

What to keep in mind

  • FC Cincinnati's games are very high-scoring at 4.6 goals — more goals means more variance and less predictability.
