📋 Team News: Toronto FC

Deandre Kerr (Ankle injury), Kobe Franklin (Ankle injury), Nicksoen Gomis (Achilles tendon surgery) and Federico Bernardeschi (unknown injury) will not be taking part for Toronto FC boss Robin Fraser.

We are thinking that The Reds may well kick off with a 4-3-3 system this time, beginning the first half with Sean Johnson, Zane Monlouis, Kevin Long, Sigurd Rosted, Raoul Petretta, Alonso Coello, Maxime Dominguez, Matthew Longstaff, Derrick Etienne, Ola Brynhildsen and Theodor Corbeanu.

ℹ️ Team News: New York Red Bulls

Owing to an otherwise healthy squad, there’s only the lone fitness worry for the New York Red Bulls gaffer Sandro Schwarz to be concerned with. Dylan Nealis (Muscle injury) won’t be playing here.

We reckon that Red Bulls might make use of a 4-2-3-1 lineup using Carlos Coronel, Kyle Duncan, Alexander Hack, Noah Eile, Raheem Edwards, Daniel Edelman, Felipe Carballo, Mohammed Sofo, Wikelman Carmona, Emil Forsberg and Lewis Morgan.

🧠 Prediction

Looking at these two teams, we feel that Toronto FC could well find it tough to get anything against this New York Red Bulls side who we think might score at least once to gain the upper hand.

We’re therefore expecting a very competitive encounter with a 0-1 win for New York Red Bulls at the end of the 90.

There should be little in it.
