NYCFC at New England Revolution Stats
Looking at the NYCFC United stats
As good as New England has been this year, New York has been impressive in their own right. They have scored the fifth-most goals overall and are first in overall shots. This is a team that is always forcing the issue on offense and searching for opportunities to score.
However, they rank in the bottom half of the league in total saves.
Valentin Castellanos is a talented striker who leads NYCFC with 20 goals to go along with eight assists. Jesus Media has scored nine times, and Ismael Tajouri-Shradi has found the back of the net on seven occasions.
In their last game, New York defeated Atlanta United by a final score of 2-0 to advance to the quarterfinals against the Revolution. They will look to keep their season alive and upset the odds against New England on Tuesday.

Who to Bet NYCFC at New England Revolution
Anything can happen. That sentiment needs to be taken into account. However, this is a dominant New England Revolution team, and they should be able to earn the victory on Tuesday night.
While NYCFC are great on offense, their defense is underwhelming. New England offers balance at both ends, and both their offense and defense are nothing short of elite.
The majority of top sportsbooks have the Revolution as 1-point favorites. I believe that sounds about right.
Take New England -1.
