Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

We predict there's very little chance of a bore-draw or a sneaky 1-0 win here, and instead we're predicting over 1.5 goals. That means that NY City and Nashville will score at least two between them during 90 minutes. It's a prediction based on the recent form of the respective sides, as well as their historic head-to-heads. We give it a probability of 77%. Bookmakers have it available at 1.22.
