DC United host New England Revolution at Audi Field on Wednesday, August 19 (7:30 PM ET / 6:30 PM CT / 4:30 PM PT).
DC United go into this one with a clean bill of health to choose from, meaning Tai Baribo, Louis Munteanu and Jackson Hopkins should all keep their places up top. Baribo leads the line with eleven goals this season, Munteanu has put together forty-two shots of his own, and Hopkins remains the creative outlet with fifteen chances created. New England Revolution, similarly untroubled by fresh team news, should again build around Carles Gil to dictate play, with Dor Turgeman and Peyton Miller the two most likely to finish off his work in behind.
This has the makings of a tight, low-scoring affair rather than an end-to-end shootout. DC United sit ninth in the Eastern Conference on twenty-three points, a goal difference of minus three underlining how stretched they’ve been at both ends, while New England Revolution occupy third spot on thirty points and remain firmly in the playoff picture. With the hosts short on cutting edge and the visitors capable of protecting a slender lead, a narrow scoreline feels the most likely outcome at Audi Field.
