New York City FC is hoping to do something that very few teams have done this year, beat the New England Revolution. They will have a chance to do so on Saturday at Yankee Stadium. The Boys in Blue have at least a game in hand on the teams in front of them right now so if they can take care of business, they could be in a very favorable position down the stretch.
With a 10-day break between their last game to this one, Deila is hoping his team can get back on track against a side that is like a runaway train at the moment, while at the time being, nothing can go wrong for New England, who are dominating the league with a ton of goals and a seven-point lead for the Supporters’ Shield trophy. Bruce Arena must have been impressed with the focus and urgency with which his team came out last Saturday against FC Cincinnati, going up 3-0 after just over half an hour of play and cruising to a comfortable 4-1 victory.

Why bet on New York City
It’s been a busy month for Ronny Deila and his team, with five games played in all competitions with no more than four days to rest between each of those matches. During that tough stretch, this team has certainly competed hard, losing only once after 90 minutes while collecting five points in league play.
Why bet the New England Revolution
The record for most points in a regular season is 72, set by Los Angeles FC in 2019, but the Revs are in a position to eclipse that mark right now with 49 points from 22 games, the same amount LA had in their record-setting campaign, and it’s the way the NER are looking.
The flow and combined play we’ve seen lately from them has been a delight to watch and made even more impressive by the fact they’re doing all of this without their top playmaker in Carles Gil.
Final betting analysis between New York City and New England
New York should provide a strong challenge for New England, much more so than Cincinnati was able to do last week. However, they don’t have the same attacking depth that the Revs possess and are becoming heavily reliant on Castellanos to score.
The New England Revolutión are focused on making a final push at the moment, so they are now determined to keep winning and have been exceptional on the road with 11 goals in their last four games, all of which were wins.
