Happy Derby Week, NYCFC Fans!
Tonight marks the first of two vital matches against the Red Bulls this week, with a second match to come at Yankee Stadium on Saturday night.
It is the kind of week that can make or break a season, as NYCFC finds themselves in a crowded playoff picture in the Eastern Conference. Should they win these 2 matches, NYCFC will set themselves as one of the top teams in the East and prove to themselves that they can win the big games, which has been a problem in the past. Should they struggle, there will be serious questions asked about the squad.
