Our prediction for this MLS match:
Gillette Stadium will host Sunday’s football game between New England Revolution and Orlando City, the two teams who sit in the playoffs berth. New England did well to beat Inter Miami in their last league match, with the team continuing with fine performances at home ground. The Revs have yet to suffer a loss at Gillette Stadium this term and it is no wonder the bookies see them as favourites to win Sunday’s clash. All Noel Buck, Brandon Bye, Henry Kessler, Dylan Borrero, Thomas McNamara, Nacho Gil, and Maciel remain in the recovery room.
The Lions, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over New York Red Bulls and Colorado Rapids. Since Orlando City have been impressive in front of goal of late, both teams to score betting option should be considered. All Adam Grinwis, Abdi Salim, Gaston Gonzalez, and Luca Petrasso remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Highlighted Team (Orlando City):
Orlando City are a member of the Eastern Conference in Major League Soccer. The Lions have been participating in the major league since 2015 and they host their rivals at Orlando City Stadium. The venue was opened in February, 2017 and the construction of the stadium cost $155 million. Orlando City finished the 2015 MLS season in seventh place in the Eastern Conference and they failed to make it to the play-offs in the 2016 season as well (8th place).
Brazilian ace Kaka is undisputedly the club’s most famous player and the former Real Madrid and Milan man became the highest-paid player in MLS history. His base salary was $6.6 million per year and it has to be noted that the Brazilian superstar found the net on his Orlando City debut against FC Dallas (friendly). Orlando City’s home kit is violet, while they wear white and violet shirts and white socks on the travels. The club’s official mascot is Kingston the Lion.
