DC United Preview – Can Rooney’s boys upset their guests?

DC United, who finished eighth in the overall table last term, have had a tough 2022 campaign thus far. They find themselves in 27th spot in the combined table and bottom of the Eastern division.

Overall, United have won six, drawn three and lost 13. Only Sporting Kansas City have suffered more losses in MLS this season. DC picked up a much-needed three points against Orlando City in their last home match, scoring two goals at the death to win 2-1 in Wayne Rooney’s first game in charge. However, they were easily beaten by Charlotte in midweek.

Our betting prediction:
Both teams to score – No
6/5

(odds taken 1045 GMT, Saturday 6 August)

 
Black-and-Red are in desperate need of points, but this will be a stern test against one of the league’s big hitters. The home victory is priced at 12/5.

New York Red Bulls Preview – Will the Red Bulls return to New Jersey with maximum points?

New York Red Bulls are fighting at the top end of the table. Ahead of this round of fixtures, Metro are in fourth place in the Eastern Conference, racking up 36 points from 23 games. They have won ten, drawn six and lost seven so far.

Gerhard Struber’s men have been in patchy form of late, winning three, drawing one and losing two of the last six. Last time out, the Red Bulls were beaten 5-4 in a crazy fixture with Colorado Rapids at the Red Bull Arena.

DC United vs New York Red Bulls Betting Advice

New York Red Bulls cruised to victory when these two clashed in Harrison back in May. An own goal, a Luquinhas brace, and a Lewis Morgan effort gave Metro a resounding 4-1 win on their own patch.

DC United had New York’s number last season, though, winning two and drawing one of the three MLS meetings. Both games at Audi Field ended in 1-0 home wins.

 

Key Facts – DC United vs New York Red Bulls Betting Tip

  • DC United are bottom of the Eastern Conference table
  • Nine goals were scored in New York Red Bulls’ last fixture
  • The Red Bulls thumped DC 4-1 back in May

 

After the horror loss to the Rapids in midweek, Struber will be looking for a big response from his players in this one. Rooney’s men were heavily beaten in their last fixture, failing to build on the superb win over Orlando.

We are backing New York Red Bulls to leave Washington, D.C. with maximum points. The away side are priced at 11/10 to get the win. Also, there is outstanding value in 3/1 for the away team to win to nil.
