Our prediction for this MLS match:
New England Revolution and New York Red Bulls square off against each other at Gillette Stadium in what is expected to be a close MLS encounter. The Revs desperately needed a win against Nashville and they managed to get one, with the team putting an end to their three-game losing run. Defender Henry Kessler is back from suspension, while all Tomas Chancalay, Nacho Gil, Thomas McNamara, Peyton Miller, and Brandon Bye miss out with injuries.
The Metros, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Charlotte and Orlando City, but beating New England on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. The likes of Peter Stroud, Ronald Donkor, Roald Mitchell, and Serge Ngoma are out of contention with injuries for the away team.
Highlighted Team (New England Revolution):
Unlike famous NFL club New England Patriots, the Revolution have yet to win the domestic trophy. New England participated five times in the MLS Cup final, but they were more than fortunate not to lift the silverware. The Revs played their last final in 2014, with the team losing to LA Galaxy in the title game at StubHub Center. New England Revolution, though, clinched the North American SuperLiga trophy in 2008 and that is considered as the club’s biggest success.
It has to be noted that the Revs defeated Houston Dynamo on penalties in the final of the tournament. New England Revolution were founded in 1994 and Gillette Stadium is the home ground of the club. Legendary defender Alexi Lalas played for the Revolution (1996-1997) and he scored three goals for the Gillette Stadium outfit. Fellow USA ace Clint Dempsey was part of the team as well and you should know that he netted 25 goals in 71 league appearances for the club.
