FC Cincinnati kick-start their post-season campaign on Sunday evening against New York Red Bulls. Cincy were the runaway winners of the 2023 Supporters’ Shield, the trophy awarded to the team who pick up the most points during the regular season. They became just the second team in MLS History to win their first ten home fixtures and captain Luciano Acosta is expected to be named Landon Donovan MLS MVP. You might think that Cincinnati will be the favourites to lift MLS Cup on December 9, but history suggests otherwise. Across the past 27 seasons the Supporters’ Shield winners have only gone on to win MLS Cup on eight occasions : 1997, 1999, 2000, 2002, 2008, 2011, 2017 and 2022.

Former President Donald Trump's civil business fraud trial is turning to the question of whether his daughter Ivanka will have to testify NEW YORK -- Days after former President Donald Trump got a taste of the witness stand, his New York civil Business fraud trial is turning to the question of whether his daughter Ivanka will have to testify , too. Friday's court session is set to start with a hearing on the issue. Ivanka Trump has been dismissed from the case, and lawyers for her family and its business contend that she shouldn't have to take the stand. New York state lawyers say she should, and they argue that the former Trump Organization executive vice president has relevant information. It's unclear how soon Judge Arthur Engoron will decide, or when Ivanka Trump would testify if ordered to do so. The civil case, brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James, accuses the former president, sons Donald Jr. and Eric, and the company of overstating the patri...

Harry Maguire has thanked the Manchester United fans for singing his name after he netted the winner in his side's 1-0 victory over Kobenhavn on Tuesday . A long-time target for criticism, Maguire is no longer a regular starter at Old Trafford but has enjoyed a positive string of performances under Erik ten Hag, culminating in the winning goal against Kobenhavn - a result sealed after a stoppage-time penalty save from another under-pressure figure, Andre Onana. Maguire's strike was met with a chorus of praise from supporters, and the centre-back was ecstatic that his positive form has not gone unappreciated. "It is amazing," he told TNT Sports after the match. "When you are not on your Game it gets picked up, but I am really proud and pleased how I have acted over this six to 12 months. "I have been given an opportunity and I want to help the team and get the club back to where it should be." Maguire handed his side the win / Jan Kruger/GettyImages L...

Some of the most popular types of NFL bets include the classic straight bet, a parlay, a player prop and a game total. However, a teaser should never be discounted as a viable option. In case you need a tutorial, a teaser is like a parlay in the sense that you’re combining 2 teams – but you get to change the spread or total in your favor. At most sportsbooks, a 2-team, 6-point teaser will have odds of either -110 or -120 (be sure to shop around for the best price). Adding a third team to a 6-point teaser generally pays out at +160. In addition to this teaser discussion, also make sure to check out our NFL Week 7 picks on the side and total for every Game .     NFL Teaser Strategies There is a certain strategy when putting your teaser together, highlighted by being aware of key numbers such as 3, 6 and 7. Those are the most common winning margins in an NFL game. So, when making a teaser you ideally want to either land on a number lower than 3 and higher than 7. For example, ...

Week 7 was another terrific week of college football, headlined by an instant classic in Seattle as Oregon vs Washington somehow exceeded my expectations last weekend. Once again, we suffered a brutal beat in the column, as South Carolina blew a double-digit lead with 4 minutes remaining to kill our chances of a winning week. We also got unlucky in Corvallis, as a pick-six thwarted our under in UCLA-Oregon State. Unfortunately, that’s just the way it goes. Now, with last weekend in the rearview mirror it’s time to get into this Week 8 slate with my weekly best bets column. Despite having a great Week 7 on my personal betting card, we went 1-2 in the column last week, bringing us to 10-9 over the past 6 weeks. However, as I said at the beginning of the season, regression was to be expected after we cashed at an unsustainable 63% rate a season ago. There’s plenty of time to turn things around this season, so let’s start with this week! We’ve got a very comp...

The automotive experts at Edmunds test SUVs of all shapes, sizes and prices The automotive experts at Edmunds test SUVs of all shapes, sizes and prices. During these evaluations, certain models rise to the top with qualities such as roomy seating and cargo areas, a comfortable ride, and easy-to-use touchscreens and Technology features. But with many prospective buyers looking to make every dollar count, it’s important to consider value as well. Working with a budget cap of $40,000, Edmunds picked five SUVs to highlight. Some have city-friendly proportions that take the stress out of parking in tight spots, while others have cavernous cargo holds and handy third-row seating. They are listed below in order of price, which includes the destination charge. 2024 MAZDA CX-50 The Mazda CX-50 small SUV earns a spot in this list thanks to its driving refinement and upscale cabin.

Let’s take a look at the Fantasy Football team of the NFL for week 6 of the com Pet ition. Raheem Mostert - three touchdowns against the Panthers The highest-scoring player in this week’s Fantasy Football rankings is Mostert, the running back for the Miami Dolphins. In Sunday’s 42-21 victory over the Panthers, he rushed the ball 17 times for 115 yards and two touchdowns . He also caught three passes for 17 yards and scored an additional touchdown. Mostert dominated opportunities when the Game was in question and led Miami’s backfield with a season-high 20 touches. He recorded his second 100-yard rushing performance of the campaign, highlighted by a long gain of 48 yards, thanks to the additional volume. Mostert also benefited from the incredibly efficient Dolphins’ offense, recording his third multi-score effort of the year. However, it is unlikely that he will continue to maintain this level of performance, given his 11 total touchdowns in only six Game s. Moreover, he could have...

Johan Cruyff was a famously difficult man to please. Pep Guardiola found that out as an academy player at Barcelona when the legendary Dutchman told the teenage midfielder he was "slower than my granny". However, in the steely gaze of Cruyff, Toni Kroos was considered "nearly perfect" in 2014. The metronomic passer of Real Madrid is out of contract next summer when he will be 34. Various sources, none of which are particularly concrete, have linked Kroos with a free transfer to Manchester City in 2024. But why would the treble winners want a player that peaked a decade ago? Why would Man City want to sign Toni Kroos? Toni Kroos (left) spent a single season at Bayern Munich with Pep Guardiola / ODD ANDERSEN/GettyImages Guardiola will be well aware of the myriad of qualities Kroos can bring to a team after a fruitful season coaching the former Germany international at Bayern Munich. The admiration was mutual. "I loved playing for him," Kroos gushed when refl...
