FC Cincinnati welcome Jamaican side Cavalier SC to the TQL Stadium in the second leg of the CONCACAF Champions Cup with the former looking to put the tie to bed and the latter vying for a fairytale comeback.
FC Cincinnati scored two crucial goals in the first leg with Sergio Santos netting the opener on the stroke of halftime and Malik Pinto doubling the lead for the Orange and Blue. The American side will now be aiming to wrap up the tie with another scintillating performance in their own backyard.
Cavalier SC, on the other hand, failed to put on a show against their American rivals as they conceded 27 shots and dished out just one shot on target in their shambolic defeat. An early goal at the TQL Stadium could help them rekindle their spark otherwise things could go south quickly for the visitors.
