New York Red Bulls vs New York City FC 18.07.2022

New York Red Bull’s two-match winning streak in the league was halted last Sunday as they travelled away to Cincinnati. A promising first half saw both teams score a goal a piece with the match looking like a thriller in the making. However, that was all she wrote as they closed shop in the second half with no further goals. The draw still keeps Red Bull in the top three just two points behind their 2nd placed neighbours.

New York City FC have been absolutely tremendous this season. They are very much in the hunt for the top slot in the Eastern Conference. They sounded a warning with a 4-2 demolition of league leaders New England Revolution a couple of weeks back which they followed up with a gutsy but crucial 1-0 win away at Dallas in midweek.

Red Bulls dominated with a 3-0 in the US Open Cup last month but that counts for nothing as far as derbies are concerned. We are expecting a tight opening half to this clash and we are backing the two teams to be level at the break
