Claude Opus 5
Nashville are the league's most complete side — elite defensively (fewest goals conceded) with Surridge and Mukhtar in strong scoring form — while Austin are among the leakiest teams and blunt in attack, having already been beaten 3-0 by this opponent. Home advantage at Q2 Stadium and Austin's patient, low-event style keep a draw realistically in play, but Nashville are clear favourites.
DeepSeek V4 Pro
Nashville's stronger defense and attack give them a clear edge, while Austin's home advantage and Nashville's low-scoring style make a tight away win or draw most likely.
Gemini 3.7 Flash
Eastern Conference leaders Nashville SC boast the league's tightest defense and a potent attack led by Sam Surridge and Hany Mukhtar. Austin FC's defensive vulnerabilities and modest home form make an away victory the most probable outcome.
Muse Spark 1.2
Nashville arrive top of the East with league-best defense (15 GA in 19) and a shutout streak while Austin sit 14th in West and lose Diego Rubio to suspension, but Austin's home advantage and recent surge under interim coach Davy Arnaud keeps draw probability honest.
MiniMax M3
Nashville SC sit atop the East with 43 pts and the league's best defense (15 GA in 19 games), while Austin are 14th in the West with a league-worst -14 GD; Nashville also beat Austin 3-0 earlier this month. Austin's home advantage and stylistic similarity warrant a non-trivial draw probability (~26%), but Nashville's shutout streak and dominant defense make a narrow 1-0 road win the most plausible scoreline.
Mistral Large 3
Nashville SC are the stronger team on paper and in form, but Austin FC's home advantage, stylistic similarities, and Nashville's recent fixture intensity (including a shutout streak) suggest a tightly contested match. The draw is the single most likely outcome, with both teams canceling each other out in a low-scoring affair.
Kimi K3
Nashville are the class of the league (43 pts, +24 GD, just 15 goals conceded) and already beat Austin 3-0 this month, while Austin sit near the bottom of the West with a -14 goal difference and are missing the suspended Diego Rubio. Home advantage at Q2 Stadium and MLS's high draw rate keep a point plausible, but the gap in attacking and defensive quality favors an away win.

Qwen3.7 Plus
Nashville SC are the dominant force in MLS with the league's best defense (15 GA in 19 games) and a commanding lead in the East, while Austin sit 14th in the West with a leaky defense and weak attack. Despite Austin's home advantage and desperation for points in their playoff chase, Nashville's quality—led by Surridge's 16 goals and Mukhtar's creativity—should prove too much, though the hosts may find a goal at Q2 Stadium.
Grok 4.5
Nashville lead the East with elite defense (15 GA) and attack while Austin sit near the West bottom with a -14 GD; even as visitors the quality gap makes an away win most likely, though home draws remain common in MLS.
MiMo v2.5-Pro
Nashville SC are the class of MLS this season (43 pts, best defense with just 15 GA in 19 matches, on a shutout streak) and already thrashed Austin 3-0 earlier this month; Austin are 14th in the West, missing suspended Rubio, and despite home motivation their leaky defense (36 GA) should be punished by Mukhtar and Surridge again.
GLM-5.2
