Toronto FC vs New England Revolution: Over 2.5 goals
Toronto FC’s 1.9 expected goals clash with New England’s 1.0 xG, pushing the combined threat above the 2.5‑goal line. The model rates the over at 55.4%, the clearest edge in this fixture.
Both sides arrive with uneven runs – Toronto has failed to break a win in their last five league outings, while New England’s recent form oscillates between a heavy win and three defeats. The contrast sets up a match where goal chances matter more than points.
Jonesy's Verdict
The joint expected‑goals total of 2.9 and the model’s 55.4% probability for over 2.5 goals make this the most compelling selection.
Show the maths
With Toronto FC averaging 1.9 expected goals and New England Revolution averaging 1.0, the model gives a 53.7% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 46.3% it gives to at least one side being kept out.
Show the maths
Combined expected goals of 2.9 (Toronto FC 1.9 + New England Revolution 1.0) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 55.4% chance against 44.6% for Under.
Show the maths
Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has Toronto FC at 58.4%, the draw at 22.1%, and New England Revolution at 19.5% to win.
The single most likely scoreline in our model is 1-0 at 10.5% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.

Most likely scorelines
Model probabilities are derived from each team's real season goals-for and goals-against averages via a Poisson goal-expectancy model — not a fixed set of narrative numbers.
Form Guide — Last 5
Toronto FC
Toronto’s last five league results read L‑D‑D‑L‑D, highlighted by a 1‑2 loss at Chicago Fire and another 1‑2 defeat at DC United, both showing defensive frailties. The two draws (0‑0 at CF Montreal and 1‑1 at New York City FC) underline their struggle to convert chances, reinforcing a propensity for multiple goals when they do score.
New England Revolution
New England’s recent run of L‑D‑W‑D‑L includes a dominant 4‑1 home win over Atlanta United FC, demonstrating their ability to fire three or more goals. However, the surrounding defeats (0‑1 at Charlotte, 0‑2 at Houston Dynamo) and a 2‑2 away draw with CF Montreal reveal inconsistency, meaning the high‑scoring win could lift the total above 2.5 goals.
Head-to-Head
In the five most recent meetings, the clubs have produced two draws (0‑0 and 1‑1) and three decisive games: Toronto won 1‑0, while New England secured 0‑2 and 0‑1 victories, showing that when either side scores, the match often exceeds a single goal.
