NY Red Bulls vs New England Preview

New York Red Bulls host New England Revolution at the Red Bull Arena on Saturday in the MLS, looking to pick themselves up from a crushing defeat in their last game.

The Red Bulls were battered 6-2 by Inter Miami last Saturday, with Luis Suarez netting a sensational hat-trick and Lionel Messi bagging five assists plus a goal. It was just their second defeat of the season, but indeed a huge one, and Sandro Schwarz’s side will be looking to bounce back.

With 17 points in the bag and four wins from 11 games, the New York side are down in fourth position of the Eastern Conference table. By contrast, their next opponents are rock bottom, having won only twice and collected seven points.

It’s been a horrid start to the season for New England Revolution, who went their first five matches without a victory, losing four. A slender 1-0 win over Charlotte FC in their next game earned them their first win of the season, only to then lose thrice more, before another 1-0 win over Chicago Fire last weekend.
