Pumas vs DC United Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in Leagues Cup on Sunday, 30 July 2023.
DC United have a game in hand, and they still are at the top of the table. They could secure the top-most spot in the group even with a draw this Sunday, and this added confidence will only help them better.
Reason being, Pumas need a win at any cost to secure a ticket to the knockouts. They will have to concentrate more on offense, and this will force them to leave spaces at the back. Their in-form counterparts are expected to have a field day at the office, considering the circumstances.
Only twice have these two teams locked horns before – 18 years before in 2005. Then Pumas managed to stay unbeaten in both clashes.
DC United have a 100% winning record so far in the Leagues Cup, and are at the top of the table even with a game in hand.
They are also one of the titans of the MLS, and are vying for a spot in the top-most tier of the Eastern Conference. Note that their only defeat in the past month came against titans New England Revolution.
On the other hand, Pumas are struggling to such an extent that they have just four wins to their name from the past 18 overall match-ups, and in the process they even went on separate four-game, and three-fixtures losing streaks.
Considering recent form, a win is expected for DC United.
DC United managed to climb to the top of the group standings even with a game in hand, and have a perfect winning record in the process. They are also one of the top-performers of the MLS, and are going after a top-tier spot in the East.
