Toronto FC
- Toronto FC are in mixed-to-strong form ahead of Wednesday's MLS 2026 clash with Nashville SC in Canada.
- His set-up is flexible enough to change from a back three to a pressing 4-3-3, but there has still been a lack of cohesion and fluency in the side's play.
Nashville SC
- Nashville SC are in red-hot form with one loss in their last 5 games (W4, L1).
- B.J. Callaghan has been Nashville SC's manager since July 2024 and he appears to have got the balance right with a high-pressing, compact team that plays with width from their full-backs, while also possessing enough of a target man to make life tough for the opposition.
Head-to-Head
Nashville SC have won the last 2 head-to-head meetings in all competitions, including a 1-0 away win in MLS 2025.
Key Players
- Sam Surridge is Nashville's main danger man with 13 goals in 16 MLS 2026 games - more than one a game - and he can provide the boys in gold with a real focal point and a bit of a difference-maker.
- Daniel Salloi is Toronto's sharpest finisher with 6 goals in 22 MLS 2026 appearances, but they don't have anyone in Surridge's class.
Betting Insights
- The 2.28 odds on Nashville look too good to resist with the Boys in Gold, compared to the 2.74 on Toronto FC and the 3.75 on a draw.
- Over 2.5 goals at 1.57 looks like a cleaner play if Nashville can keep up the pressing in the opposing half and Surridge can stay sharp.
Prediction
So, Nashville should find enough of a way to win, but they may not run away with it.
