Prediction: 2-0
New York City
DC United will be looking to book their place in the MLS play-offs with a win over New York City at their Audi Field. DC United have been in a thrilling form of late and you should bear in mind that they are eyeing their fifth consecutive win in the Major League Soccer. Wayne Rooney is eager to take part in the MLS play-offs for the first time in his career and all eyes will be on the former Manchester United and Everton attacker when the capital club take on New York City. David Villa and Co. have already booked their place in the play-offs, meaning that away win should be considered. DC United are brimming with confidence ahead of Sunday’s football game and we predict that they are going to prove their worth on the field and secure a top-six finish.
