Battling Toronto are aching to pull off a surprise when they host top side Orlando City in the next league match. It’s 15th vs 2nd and the home regulars will have so-so confidence.
- Toronto have the fewest scored goals (26) in Major League Soccer
- Orlando City is in the best form (4-1-1) in Major League Soccer
Orlando City have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Toronto form and stats
4 victories, 6 draws and 6 defeats. That’s what Toronto have to build on here at BMO Field in the Major League Soccer. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Toronto with their six defeats in a row. Not since the Philadelphia Union game, 51 days ago, have they avoided a loss.
