Orlando City Expected to Keep Scoring Low Against DC United

Orlando City sit seventh with 37 points from 28 games while DC United are twelfth on 30 points from 27. Orlando average 1.9 goals scored and 1.4 conceded in home league matches this season. DC United score just 0.8 goals per game across their recent outings and manage only 1.2 away from home overall. Their last five results read four defeats and one draw with no wins. Head to head meetings show Orlando with four victories and DC with four but the visitors have struggled to find the net consistently. The game may stay tight if Orlando press high without overcommitting forward against a side that rarely creates clear chances.
