The New England Revolution have been on cloud nine. Sitting 4th in the Eastern Conference as per recent updates by the MLS, they are enjoying an unbeaten streak of nine games. Form for them reads W-D-W-W-D, with a solid home record to boot, having gone unbeaten in their last six home games at Gillette. Their last came on June 8, 2025, in a 3-nil brutalizing of Montreal with last-match stats showing 58% possession, 15 shots with 7 on target, and a clean sheet. Season stats have them firmly planted as dominators with 32 goals for and 22 against in 18 games, per MLS.com.The Revs have a history steeped with near misses-fives losses in MLS Cup finals since 1996-but they are always in contention. Boston Globe reports keep quoting that the injury list has suffered no new entries, and Caleb Porter’s outfit is rolling. Carles Gil has been the pulse, marshalling 10 goal contributions in 15 outings. Post-Montreal, Porter told MLSsoccer.com, "We’re peaking at the right time. Cincinnati’s tough, but we’re ready to defend our turf.”

FC Cincinnati: form and statistics
A mixed bag of a season for FC Cincinnati. The seventh spot in the East is that for them, having lost two of the last three games. Their form reads as L-W-L-D-W, and away form is awful: just two wins out of eight road trips. Their last game saw them lose 2-1 at home against DC United on the 7th of June, 2025, with last match stats showing 49% along with 12 efforts (4 on target), and defensive lapses. Per ESPN, season stats stand at 28 goals scoring and 30 goals-conceding at the end of 18 matches.The rise of Cincinnati from an MLS punching bag to a 2022 playoff contender is notable, but injuries to Nick Hagglund and Yuya Kubo have been detrimental. Cincinnati Enquirer chronicles Pat Noonan's frustration after the loss to DC with the coach saying to The Athletic, "We've got the pieces—Acosta, Denkey—but we need consistency. New England's a test we can't fail." Fans on X are divided, some sensing an upset at hand, and others expecting Revolution to absolutely dismantle.
FC Cincinnati Lineup

Out: Nick Hagglund (injured), Yuya Kubo (injured)

New England Revolution vs FC Cincinnati Head-to-Head Statistics
Spicy history these two share. The records report Cincinnati sitting on 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss in its last five duels with the Revs. The recently convened tit-for-tat meeting, dated March 17, 2024, at Gillette, was a gut punch for the Revs, the final score being 1-0 for Cincinnati. H2H streaks read close and cagey-three of those five games witnessed less than 2.5 goals. Cincinnati's knack for grinding out the results against New England created tension, but the Revs' current surge may just turn the tables.
New England Revolution vs FC Cincinnati Betting Tips and Odds
- Three straight H2H games stayed under 2.5 goals, and both defenses are stingy—odds at 2.113 look solid.
- New England’s clean-sheet streak (three in five) and Cincy’s road struggles point to 2.336 as a safe bet.
- Nine unbeaten and a 2.563 moneyline make the Revs the pick—form’s too hot to ignore.
- Four of the last five H2Hs were level at the break—teams feel each other out early.
- Possession play keeps corners low (1.859 odds); last meeting had just 7.
New England Revolution vs FC Cincinnati Match Prediction
New England’s momentum meets Cincinnati’s desperation, but that home advantage might just tip the scales. The Revs’ defense mutes the impact of Acosta, whereas Gil establishes dominance in the dying seconds. Leading sites such as Covers give a 2-1 favor for the Revs, but I see it tight.
