The Red Bulls didn't impress in their preseason friendlies, but there were reasons for that. Squad rotation and a less-than-ideal mindset played a part. However, the first match of the season painted a different picture. New York triumphed over Orlando City with a 2-1 victory, and they did it away from home. Fans have every reason to be pleased. Without a doubt. The team peppered the goal with shots on target (13 throughout the match) and racked up an xG of over three, meaning their potential wasn't fully realized. Nevertheless, the two goals scored in the first half secured their first three points of the regular season.

The Revolution, on the other hand, have stumbled out of the gate this season. Their offseason efforts appear lacking, as all their missteps were exposed against their first formidable opponent.

Clearly, there's still plenty of work to be done.

Therefore, our pick is New York Red Bulls' individual total over 1.5. We anticipate a 2-1 scoreline in favor of the home side in this match.
