New Eng. Revolution head into this game after a 1-1 MLS draw vs Orlando City.

In that game, New Eng. Revolution had 53% possession and 9 shots on goal with 3 of them on target. The only player to score for New Eng. Revolution was Carles Gil (22'). Orlando City had 13 shots at goal with 5 on target. Robin Jansson (35') was the scorer for Orlando City.

It’s been a rare occasion in recent games that New Eng. Revolution haven’t conceded. It will be a concern for them that New Eng. Revolution have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 games, leaking 7 goals along the way. That kind of trend isn’t assured to be sustained into this match, though.

Minnesota United

WLDWLL

Following on from suffering a loss in their previous game against New York City FC in MLS competition, Minnesota United will be hoping to turn things around here.

In that game, Minnesota United had 45% possession and 12 shots on goal with 4 on target. For their opponents, New York City FC had 15 attempts on goal with 5 of them on target. Alexander Callens (29') scored for New York City FC.

Minnesota United have been good when going forward of late, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 matches. While their manager Adrian Heath will no doubt take that as a positive sign, Minnesota United have had their own issues at the back, also conceding in 6 of those same matches.

🗞️ Team News: New Eng. Revolution

The New Eng. Revolution manager Bruce Arena has zero fitness concerns to speak of before this game with a completely healthy group available for selection.

It’s our opinion that Revs will possibly use a 4-2-3-1 formation in the match, handing starts to Matt Turner, Brandon Bye, Andrew Farrell, Jon Bell, DeJuan Jones, Thomas McNamara, A. Ingvi Traustason, Sebastian Lletget, Carles Gil, Maciel and Gustavo Bou.

📰 Team News: Minnesota United

Minnesota United boss Adrian Heath has not got a full squad to pick from. Hassani Dotson (Cruciate Ligament Rupture), Tyler Miller (Stomach complaints), Patrick Weah (Knee Injury), Justin McMaster (Shoulder Injury) and Romain Métanire (Hamstring Injury) are those who can’t be considered.

We reckon that Loons seem most likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 formation, starting Dayne St. Clair, DJ Taylor, Brent Kallman, Bakaye Dibassy, Kemar Lawrence, Jacori Hayes, Wil Trapp, Niko Hansen, Emanuel Reynoso, Franco Fragapane and Robin Lod.
