The long wait is almost over for soccer fans tuning in for Nashville SC v D.C. United on 18 de mayo de 2025. El partido comienza a las 02:30 CEST en Italia, Alemania, Francia y España, y en 01:30 BST in the UK. Geodis Park will host the Eastern Conference showdown as Nashville SC concludes their two-game MLS homestand.
Coming off a stunning 2-1 win over the defending Eastern Conference champions New York Red Bulls, Nashville SC has extended their home streak to five victories. D.C. United, meanwhile, will be eager to arrest a mixed run of form on the road and climb the standings with a positive result in Tennessee.
¿Cómo llegan ambos equipos?
Nashville SC arrives in buoyant mood after midfielder Patrick Yazbek opened the scoring for the first time in his MLS career and club talisman Hany Mukhtar secured all three points against New York. The Boys in Gold have now won five straight at Geodis Park, demonstrating a potent blend of disciplined defending and swift transitions in attack.
D.C. United have been inconsistent away from home so far this season, alternating wins, draws and losses on the road. Their defence has been vulnerable to quick counterattacks, but they still possess attacking talent capable of exploiting lapses in concentration. A win in Nashville would give them valuable momentum in a tightly packed Eastern Conference table.
Nuestras previsiones
Expect this to be a tight, tactical contest under the lights at Geodis Park. Nashville’s confidence and home support make them slight favourites, especially after their recent form against strong Eastern rivals. However, D.C. United’s resilience and pace on the break mean they will not go down without a fight.
We predict a low-scoring affair, with Nashville SC edging it by a single goal. A 2-1 victory for the hosts looks a plausible outcome, while backing both teams to score also appeals given D.C. United’s threat on the counterattack.
