Prediction: 1-1
New York City
Sporting Kansas City will be looking to recover from a 3-2 loss to Seattle Sounders when they take on New York City at Children’s Mercy Park. The Wizards have been having their ups and downs of late and they surely face a difficult task against the Blue Pigeons. The hosts are boosted by Jacob Bartlett’s return from suspension, while Mexican forward Santiago Munoz should be recalled to the starting XI after scoring as a substitute against Seattle.
Meanwhile, New York City quickly bounced back from a 2-0 loss to Charlotte, with the team beating Orlando City (2-1) on the road on Thursday morning. The Blue Pigeons, though, are not regarded as good travellers and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Sporting Kansas City’s party at Children’s Mercy Park. Both Malachi Jones and Keaton Alexander Parks are sidelined with injuries for the away team.
Highlighted Team (New York City):
New York City are an American soccer club and they have been competing in Major League Soccer since 2015. The Pigeons play their home games at Yankee Stadium and they are the second club in New York after the New York Red Bulls.
Famous Arsenal player Patrick Vieira took over the reins in January, 2016 and he helped the team finish the season in second place in the Eastern Conference. However, they were totally outclassed by Toronto FC (0-7 on aggregate) in the conference semifinals.
New York City chiefs have been pumping up a lot of money into the squad ever since the team began play in MLS and it has to be noted that the likes of Andrea Pirlo and David Villa played for the Pigeons in the 2016 season. New York City footballers wear sky blue shirts when playing at home, while the colour of the team’s away kit is dark blue.
Companies City Football Group (80%) and Yankee Global Enterprises own the club.
