Head-to-head statistics New-England - New-York City

New-England Revolution Team Overview
The team's most recent official match took place on as part of the MLS tournament (home team - DC United, away team - New-England Revolution). The match concluded with a scoreline of 0:3.
Here's the game statistics (New-England Revolution vs DC United):

New England Revolution are currently sitting in the upper half of the Eastern Conference table and have been reasonably solid over the course of the season. Recent form, though, has been mixed: two wins, two defeats and a draw across their last five matches. Last time out they put in a strong performance, beating DC United 3-0, with the defence particularly impressive. At home, they can probably produce another decent display, especially given that their opponents are well short of their best right now. The attacking output is worth noting, however - that win over DC United looks more like an exception than the norm. On average, the hosts are scoring around 1.6 goals per game.

New-York City Team Overview
The away team played their last official match on as part of the MLS tournament (home team - Cincinnati, away - New-York City). The match concluded with a scoreline of 2:1.
Here are the match stats (New-York City vs Cincinnati):

New York City sit seventh in the standings, a few places below New England in fourth. Their recent form has been poor - four consecutive defeats. Some of those came against Mexican clubs, but in MLS they have also lost to Philadelphia (2-3) and Cincinnati (1-2). It's hard to pin down a clear stylistic identity for New York City right now, as they tend to adapt their approach to whoever they're facing. That shows in their fairly average league numbers: around 1.7 goals scored per game, with 1.45 conceded. Away from home, they have little reason to open up - and not really the resources to do so either.
