Statistics imply both clubs have the weapons to deliver up top, an encouraging sign for the neutrals. With a real favourite to win the game, we really like the look of over 2.5 goals.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think Nashville are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 49% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 2.00.
