Midweek slate — D.C. United at Cincinnati, Wednesday 7 p.m.

Makeup night in Cincinnati

D.C. United’s next competitive date is Wednesday at FC Cincinnati — 7 p.m. at TQL Stadium — the Sept. 5 match MLS postponed for pitch conditions and player safety. The Black-and-Red have waited more than a month to close that ledger.

Recent form is thin: a 1-4 loss at Orlando on Oct. 17 sits in the rearview. Cincinnati will treat this like a home midweek they expect to control. United’s job is cleaner: a road XI that can travel, a first 20 that is not chaotic, and a result that keeps the remaining October slate from turning into damage control.

Gates at TQL open at 5:30 p.m. Confirm the lineup and broadcast on the United board before kick.

The D.C. United page is the hub.
