Welcome to Tactical Sips, a semi-regular pre-match post featuring taurine-spiked breakdowns of the upcoming game.
Fresh off a rain delay against Inter Miami, the New York Red Bulls return to action with their first international journey in a very, very long time. The dreaded summer stretch of three matches in one week was disrupted by the ever-merciful Mother Nature. The decision of which players to rest becomes a question of which to start, Canadian border permitting.
In this fixture, the opponent is none other than Toronto FC. The Red Bulls already faced The Reds this season, resulting in a 2-0 victory.
