Prediction
New England Revolution 3, DC United 1
Moneyline (ML)
NEW ENGLAND ( +110) took care of Montreal 1-0 in the opening match, while DC United (+225) and Toronto FC played to a 2-2 draw in their opener. DC is a bit nicked up, missing some key contributors. That's not good against a Revs side that is nearly whole. While United has posted a 2-1-2 mark in the previous five head-to-head meetings, you can expect the Revs to return the favor in this one.
A winning $10 wager on New England (+110) fetches a net profit of $11.
Over/Under (O/U)
OVER 2.5 ( -150) is worth a small-unit play, as DC's defense was a bit shaky in its 2-2 draw in the opening match. Look for New England to take advantage, and potentially take care of the Over all by itself.
