New York Red Bulls will be eager to bounce back when they host Eastern Conference leaders Nashville, with the Red Bulls looking to move into the playoff places after a 2-1 defeat to Atlanta United. The hosts have struggled for consistency lately, winning just four of their last 10 matches, while their defensive problems are particularly concerning, conceding 1.90 goals per game. BTTS has landed in 80% of their last 10 outings. Goalkeeper AJ Marcucci and forward Rafael Mosquera are both sidelined through injury.
Nashville, meanwhile, arrive full of confidence after an impressive 4-1 victory over Lionel Messi's Inter Miami. The visitors sit top of the Eastern Conference and have won 60% of their last 10 matches, although their away record is a major concern, with no wins in their last three road games. Nashville average 1.80 goals per game overall and have conceded only 1.10. Madrigal and Yazbek are doubts ahead of the trip. Interestingly, the H2H record strongly favours New York, with the Red Bulls unbeaten in seven of the previous eight meetings.
As both teams scored in 80% of the Red Bulls' last 10 matches, this betting option should be considered, alongside Over 1.5 (50%) and Nashville or Draw (excellent display against Inter Miami).
Over 1.5 Goals – New York's games average 3.40 goals per match.
This MLS match will be played on Thursday 20 August 2026 at 00:30.
