Two teams in contrasting form will battle it out at Gillette Stadium on Sunday evening, when the New England Revolution take on New York City FC. While the hosts got back to winning ways last time out, scoring three goals in the process, the visitors picked up another disappointing result, losing by two goals to one in Cincinnati. In all competitions, they've now lost four on the bounce and are in need of a pick-me-up. 

From a betting angle, the pick here is 'Over 2.5 Goals'. Odds of -149 may seem a little skinny at first glance, but if we really think about it, such odds look somewhat generous. Both teams have developed a high-scoring habit of late, with the goals very much flowing in games involving each team. For starters, each of NYCFC's last four away games has contained three or more goals.

Our New England Revolution vs New York City Prediction

Given the sheer number of high-scoring games enjoyed by these two teams of late, odds of -149 are a little too large to turn down, at least that's the case if you're looking to slice off some value. We know that this NYCFC team can score goals, they've done that week in, week out, but they just cannot keep it tight at the back, so don't be surprised if they do some damage but also get hurt at Gillette Stadium. 

If we also consider that five of the Revs' last six home games have contained three or more goals, 'Over 2.5 Goals' really does stand out as the smart play all the time odds of -149 are on offer. 

Our New England Revolution vs NYCFC Pick: Over 2.5 Goals.
