Nashville vs Toluca Prediction and Betting Tips | July 27th 2023
Nashville will be looking to make it two wins from two in the Leagues Cup when they take on Toluca at GEODIS Park on Thursday.
The Mexican Liga MX outfit will be looking to return to winning ways and get their cup campaign off on the right foot after last week’s loss to Juarez FC.
Nashville kicked off their cup campaign on Monday when they picked up a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Colorado Rapids on home turf.
Gary Smith’s side were previously on a three-match losing streak, suffering consecutive defeats against Chicago Fire, Philadelphia Union and Cincinnati in the MLS.
Nashville will now look to pick up from where they dropped on Monday and record back-to-back wins for the first time since the first week of June.
Toluca, on the other hand, were condemned to their first defeat of the new Liga MX campaign last time out when they were beaten 4-2 by Juarez FC.
Prior to that, Ignacio Ambríz’s men kicked off the Mexican top-flight campaign with a goalless draw against Club Necaxa on July 2, one week before claiming a 2-0 victory over 10-man Cruz Azul.
While Toluca will be looking to return to winning ways, they have struggled for results on the road, where they are winless in four of their last six matches since the start of March.
Having kicked off their quest for cup glory with a superb team display on Monday, Nashville will head into this one with full confidence. Smith’s men have won nine of their last 10 home matches and we are backing them to edge out the Mexican outfit.
