Following a big success over rivals the New York Red Bulls, the NYCFC boys will be back in The Bronx on Saturday evening, when they'll take on DC United. Having won for the first time in four games, the hosts will be looking to get the job done against a visiting team that is currently outside of the play-off places in the Eastern Conference, though this is a DC team that has now gone three games withuot tasting defeat. 

Could the visitors be turning a corner? Are they sharpening up? Well, it's probably too early to say either way, but it's definitely fair to say that they've done a better job of getting competitive over the last couple of weeks, especially offensively. Against an NYCFC side that is far from strong at the back, the visitors could easily hold their own in an attacking sense at Yankee Stadium. With both teams scoring and conceding plenty of late, we could easily argue that 'Both Teams to Score' is a little leniently priced at odds of -120.

Our New York City vs DC United Prediction

This really does look like a game that both teams will be looking to attack, which means that we could see plenty of chances at Yankee Stadium on Saturday evening. In general, this venue has seen no shortage of chances or goals, with the NYCFC boys scoring plenty in front of a home crowd this season. They've also conceded plenty, with both teams notching in each of the last five Major League Soccer games that have been played at the former baseball ground.
