Preview: Orlando City vs Nashville SC

Two Eastern conference rivals fighting for playoffs spots and home field advantage

Christina Moore-SixOneFive Soccer

Just three weeks after their last meeting, Orlando City and Nashville SC face off against each other for the third time this season. The Boys in Gold thrashed the Lions 5-1 at Geodis Park, but will things be different in the Sunshine State?

Nashville can clinch a playoff spot with a win or if the New York Red Bulls drop any points on the road against CF Montréal. A win would also put the Boys in Gold just one point off their best-ever MLS campaign in 2021, with three games to go.

Recap: Nashville bounce back with ascendent win over Orlando
Sam Surridge and Hany Mukhtar each score a brace in statement victory
