The Hudson River Derby – New York Red Bulls vs. New York City FC, will be the most interesting game in the MLS this weekend. The Bulls are in excellent form, while their rivals are waking up following a poor stretch. The game takes place at the Red Bull Arena in Harrison.
Before Betting on New York Red Bulls vs. New York City FC
The Red Bulls have six wins in the past nine games, with two losses and a draw, which took place in the last round on the road in Cincinnati, 1-1. The efficiency of their events is moderate, with six of the past seven ending between two and three goals.
The Bulls are superb at home, winning the previous five games, and scoring at least twice in each of those encounters.
On the other side, the MLS Cup winners have back-to-back wins, which is a refreshment for Nick Cushing, the interim manager who didn’t start his tenure with City very well. Ronny Deila left, and after that, the Citizens collapsed for a few weeks, but it seems they are slowly clawing their way out of the hole.
After a series of high-scoring events, four in a row with three or more goals, the latest one in Dallas against FC ended, 0-1 in the favor of the MLS champs.
