Toronto FC Prediction League 2018: Round 23 (@ New York City FC)

This afternoon, Toronto FC will play New York City FC at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx. A week and a half after the 4-4 draw with D.C. United on the eve of the World Cup, the Reds will hopefully come into this one well rested and a little healthier than they were when they entered the break.

NYCFC is a club that TFC have had some very entertaining contests with, including a 2-2 draw in New York last July and a 4-0 win for Toronto just over a week later. And who could forget Sebastian Giovinco’s hat trick in the 2016 playoffs?

The 2018 season has gotten off to a pretty good start for NYC, who sit second in the Eastern Conference at 28 points. They’re one of the teams that may be out of reach for the Reds at this point, but a win against a top opponent like that could be a huge confidence boost.

The prediction league didn’t go very well for most of you last time around. The D.C. match threw a wrench into pretty much everything; the only thing anybody got points for (I think, unless I missed something) is TFC scoring four goals.

Will this game be another shootout? Will the Reds find more joy at Yankee Stadium? Will they be bested by the in-form NYC?
