The excitement of the 2024 Major League Soccer (MLS) season continues, and next weekend, we will enjoy the 29th matchday.

The regular season is close to its end, so each team is working their tails off in every game to ensure their qualification for the playoffs. The competition in the Eastern Conference is practically defined, as Inter Miami is at the top of the standings with 56 points after 26 games played. Their closest pursuers are FC Cincinnati and Columbus Crew, with 48 and 43 points, respectively.

In the West, the LA Galaxy has taken advantage of some slips by LAFC to take a 5-point lead at the top of the table. However, LAFC has three games in hand, so it is entirely up to them to stay on top.

Now, one of the best matches we can enjoy in this new round will be between Columbus Crew and NYC FC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Bet on Columbus Crew?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Columbus Crew are the reigning MLS champions,<\/a> so they aim to retain their title this season. While their place in the playoffs may be practically assured, they need more determination, as they are in third place in the table, with a record of 12 wins, 7 draws, and 4 losses, with 47 goals for and 22 against.<\/strong>

Although the team is third, they have three games less played than Inter Miami and FC Cincinnati. So, if they win all of them, they would be in second place in the East, fighting with Inter Miami for the top.

Likewise, it is worth noting that the Crew is inspired for this match against NYC FC, as they come from being champions of the Leagues Cup 2024 after beating LAFC by 3-1 in the final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Bet on NYC FC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, we have NYC FC, a team that started the season with some doubts, but as the matchdays went by, they managed to score important points that kept them within the top five of the standings.

Currently, NY is in fifth place in the table, with a record of 11 wins, 6 draws, and 9 losses, with 38 goals for and 32 against.<\/strong> While the offense continues to play consistently, the Big Apple side needs to put up a more solid defense, which will allow them to win more games and move up.

NYC FC is coming off a disappointing 2-2 draw at home to the Chicago Fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
