This Sunday sees Caps go head to head with Nashville at BC Place Stadium – Kick-off 5:00am GMT.

When Nashville visit BC Place Stadium they will be sat in sixth place in the League. Caps, currently 8 will face an up-hill battle to handle the visitors.

Vancouver Whitecaps have 34 points to their name, going into this tie

With Vanni Sartini’s men stubbornly held to a 1-1 draw in their last match, he will hope to find the key to unlock the defence in this fixture.

Also, a draw statistic of four in eight fixtures is not all bad, but unfortunately will not bring the success Vanni Sartini’s men wishes for ultimately. Now they have 0 matches won, 0 games lost and 0 duels drawn; that’s why they currently sit in eighth place, with a total of 34 points.

Playing at home, Caps have won seven matches, drawn three meetings, and lost three fixtures.

Vancouver Whitecaps will see 37 points so far this season, should they secure a win.

Nashville SC’s campaign so far has seen them accrue 36 points this season

Nashville will take a huge positive from their recent 4-0 win against FC Dallas at Nissan Stadium.

Also, Nashville need to find a way to generate wins on a consistent basis, as they’ve recorded two losses in their last three matches. Their position is sixth in the League and they have 36 points, that is, 0W, 0L and 0D.

Nashville’s away record is remarkable and poses a significant threat to Caps. In the 14 games they’ve played on the road this season, they have so far won five matches, drawn four fixtures, and lost five fixtures.

Nashville SC will have 39 points if they manage to secure a victory.

Vancouver Whitecaps v Nashville SC – Head-to-Head.

Regarding their historical duels the outcome of any game is never certain, but history would lead us to suspect that a draw is unlikely. Both teams have had an equal number of wins over matches in the past seasons. In addition, the two sides have drawn the last one game they have had. The last time they played each other in this competition was July 2022 and the score line ended up with a 1-1 draw.
