New York City FC vs. New England Revolution Betting Preview
New York City FC
It has been a rough season for NYCFC as they haven’t replaced the production lost when Taty Castellanos was sold to Girona. The last five games have been a microcosm of their season with four losses, three by one goal. They have been shutout twice in that span and scored more than one goal just one time.
Despite not having a full-time home, NYCFC has taken advantage of MLS teams coming to their venues. Before the Union game, they hadn’t lost at home in 10 straight games and hadn’t blown a lead at home since May 2021. Their 4-1-1 home record plays into their moneyline number for the NYC vs New England Revolution odds this weekend.
Santiago Rodriguez and Gabriel Pereira lead NYCFC with four goals this season, and Talles Magno has scored three times. Richard Ledezma leads the Pigeons with four assists, and James Sands has a team-leading 22 tackles. Luis Barraza has started all 14 games in goal, allowing 19 goals with 39 saves.
New England Revolution
The Revolution are in third place in the Eastern Conference behind FC Cincinnati and Nashville SC as they get ready for two games this week. They are popular among MLS picks to win in Atlanta before heading to NYC.
Bobby Wood scored the game-winner against the Chicago Fire last weekend, his fourth goal and seventh goal contribution on the season. Carles Gil and Giacomo Vrioni both have three goals, while three others have netted a pair of goals on the season. Gustavo Bou is questionable to come back from a left leg injury this week, while usual starters Dylan Borrero and Brandon Bye are out.
Dorde Petrovic has stepped in to replace Matt Turner in goal this season. The Serbian has started all 14 MLS games with 17 goals allowed, 51 saves, and five clean sheets. Defender David Romney is a big key to the defense as well, having played all 1,260 available minutes on the season, the only Revolution field player to do so.
New York City FC vs. New England Revolution Betting Picks
Over/Under: Under 2.5 +105
Looking at the NYC vs New England Revolution odds we find a plus moneyline on the under 2.5 goals. These teams met in April and drew 1-1, with both goals coming in the final 20 minutes.
Moneyline/Run Line: New England +230.
Look for the Revolution to keep their good form going on the road and steal a win from an NYCFC team that struggles to score. If NYCFC loses to Cincinnati on Wednesday, this number may go down.
