Only one of their last ten league and cup games has ended in defeat. They are the second highest scorers in the Eastern Conference with 24 goals, just one less than leaders New York City have scored. The Red Bulls have the best away record in the conference with five wins, a draw and one loss. However, they won their first five away MLS games of the season and have only a point from the last two. The most recent fixture on the road was a 2-0 loss at Inter Miami. They'd scored in their last six away conference matches before that blank in the last match. Go for both teams to score in this game.
