The team have displayed resilience, securing three draws and two wins in their last five outings, including a notable 3-1 away victory against Houston Dynamo in a friendly.

Recent home/away form

Orlando City

Orlando City's recent home form has been a mixed bag, with their last six matches yielding two wins, one draw, and three losses. The Lions have struggled defensively, conceding nine goals in these fixtures, while managing to score eight themselves. Their most recent home game saw a return to form with a high-scoring 4-2 victory over Toronto FC, breaking a three-match winless streak at their own ground.

Despite their inconsistent results, Orlando City have shown the ability to keep clean sheets in two of these six matches, demonstrating some defensive resilience amidst their struggles. The team's goal difference of -1 over this period suggests they are narrowly being outperformed by their opponents, reflecting their current mid-table position in the league.
