Our prediction for this MLS match:
New York Red Bulls will look to make amends for a 1-0 loss to New England Revolution when they take on Nashville at Red Bull Arena on Sunday morning. The Metros are eyeing their fourth consecutive win at home ground, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. The good news for the hosts is that both Emil Forsberg and John Tolkin are back from international duty, while Lewis Morgan is representing Scotland at EURO 2024 finals.
Nashville, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 2-1 loss to New England Revolution and given New York Red Bulls’ fine home record, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the home side. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to New York City. You should know that Nashville failed to find the net in the previous three meetings with New York Red Bulls.
Highlighted Team (New York Red Bulls):
New York Red Bulls is the first club from New York City to join Major League Soccer. In 2006 the club was sold to Red Bull GmbH and, as a result, they are nicknamed the Red Bulls. New York welcome their rivals at Red Bull Arena and the team’s home colors are white and red.
On the other hand, the Red Bulls wear dark blue shirts and yellow shorts on the road. In 2008 New York Red Bulls made it to the MLS Cup final, but they were not capable of matching Columbus Crew (1-3) in the Home Depot Center clash. A number of top-class footballers were part of the team in the past, but former Arsenal forward Thierry Henry is the synonym of the club.
Henry scored 51 goals in 122 league games for New York Red Bulls from 2010 to 2014 and it has to be noted that he scored his first MLS hat-trick in a 5-2 victory over Montreal Impact on March 31, 2012. The likes of Youri Djorkaeff, Lothar Matthaus, Roberto Donadoni, Rafael Marquez, Juninho and Tim Cahill played for the club in the past as well.
