Score Prediction
As I mentioned in the introduction, this is one of those matches where the MLS side enters at a clear disadvantage compared to its opponent.
However, anything can happen in soccer; that much is certain. Still, based on the way Austin FC and Club Tijuana have been playing lately, this will be a very difficult challenge for the MLS side.
If you look at the last five games of each team, you’ll realize that what I’m saying is true. There is one advantage Austin could capitalize on tonight: they are playing at home alongside their people.
Still, Tijuana’s defense has conceded only one goal in their last five matches, which suggests that Oak will have a tough time breaking through and finding the back of the net against the Mexican side.
The truth is that both teams want to start the Leagues Cup on the right foot.
Score Prediction: Austin FC 0-2 Club Tijuana
