FC Cincinnati, under coach Noonan, continue to demonstrate why they are atop the standings with a strong form guide that includes four wins from their last five matches. Their away performance has been particularly noteworthy, with victories over tough opponents such as Sporting Kansas City and DC United on the road.

Despite a recent narrow loss to New York City FC, their resilience and ability to grind out results have been key factors in their successful campaign so far.
