Team News: New York City FC
Malachi Jones (Broken leg) and Jacob Arroyave (Knee injury) won’t be able to feature for New York City FC gaffer Pascal Jansen.
In all likelihood, The Pigeons will possibly line up in a 4-3-3 formation, utilising Tomás Romero, S. Tanasijevic, Justin Haak, Thiago Martins, Birk Risa, Julián Fernández, Andrés Perea, Maxi Moralez, Agustin Ojeda, Monsef Bakrar and Hannes Wolf.

Team News: Toronto FC
Toronto FC manager Robin Fraser has to currently contend with reduced team options. Deandre Kerr (Ankle injury), Kobe Franklin (Ankle injury), Nicksoen Gomis (Achilles tendon surgery) and Federico Bernardeschi (unknown injury) won’t be making appearances.
We are inclined to think that The Reds might make use of a 3-5-2 formation by sending out Sean Johnson, Kevin Long, Sigurd Rosted, Raoul Petretta, Kosi Thompson, A. Coello Camarero, Maxime Dominguez, Matthew Longstaff, Tyrese Spicer, Theo Corbeanu and Ola Brynhildsen.

Looking at these two teams, we feel that New York City FC will most probably get amongst the goals when they face Toronto FC, who might well find it difficult to break down their defence.
Therefore, we are anticipating a 2-0 victory for New York City FC at full-time.
