It’s rivalry week for MLS action this weekend. Saturday’s action begins with a nationally televised match between New York City FC and the New York Red Bulls at the iconic Yankee Stadium. The two New York area teams will battle in a rare Saturday game that is nationally televised.
Both teams are looking to win a critical three points. A win for NYCFC would move them two points clear of the current first place team in the Eastern Conference. New York Red Bulls would move into the top three of the crowded standings and would be a steal to get three road points.
