DC United host FC Cincinnati at Audi Field on Saturday, October 24 (7:30 PM ET \/ 6:30 PM CT \/ 4:30 PM PT).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Neither DC United nor FC Cincinnati carries a fresh fitness worry into this Eastern Conference<\/a> meeting at Audi Field, so both sides should field their most dangerous attacking options from kickoff. Tai Baribo, who has scored sixteen goals in the striker role this season, leads the home attack alongside Louis Munteanu, while Steeve K\u00e9vin Denkey arrives on the back of seventeen goals for the visitors and will be flanked in midfield by Evander, who has created seventy-eight chances from the centre of the park.<\/p>\n

Both teams have leaked goals all season \u2014 DC United carry a goal difference of minus fourteen and FC Cincinnati sit at minus nine \u2014 and that shared defensive fragility points to a game decided at both ends rather than a cagey stalemate. DC United have shown flashes at home, but Cincinnati’s firepower, led by Denkey and supported by Evander’s craft, gives the visitors the greater edge on the night.<\/p>\n\n\n
