Cincinnati Home Attack Tests Sounders Away Form

FC Cincinnati average over three goals per home match this season while Seattle Sounders manage just 0.70 away. The visitors have dropped points in their last eight outings according to the listed form string. Head-to-head results show only one draw across the past three meetings. Cincinnati concede 2.40 goals on average yet create enough chances at home to limit stalemates. Sounders record just 11 percent of matches over 2.5 goals which points to controlled games but still favors an outcome either way. Their 28 percent clean-sheet rate on the road has not translated into recent results against stronger attacks.
