Recent form

New York Red Bulls

The New York Red Bulls have shown mixed form in their recent fixtures, sitting 9th in the league with 12 points from 8 games. Their last six matches have yielded two wins, three draws, and one loss, indicating a relatively steady performance. The Red Bulls have been involved in some high-scoring affairs, with 67% of their matches seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring. Defensively, they've managed two clean sheets in this period, whilst maintaining a positive goal difference of +1. Their most recent outing resulted in a goalless draw against Orlando City, marking their second consecutive clean sheet away from home. The team have been consistent in finding the back of the net, scoring in five out of their last six matches, though their average of 1.17 goals per game suggests room for improvement in attack.

DC United

DC United are currently experiencing a dire run of form, having lost their last four matches in a row and failing to secure a victory in their past five outings. Their defensive frailties have been particularly evident, conceding a staggering 14 goals in their last six games, with a notably high-scoring defeat against San Jose Earthquakes (6-1). The team's goal-scoring prowess has also been lacking, managing to find the net only five times in this period. Despite a clean sheet against CF Montréal, DC United have struggled to keep opponents at bay, with both teams scoring in 67% of their recent matches. The high average of 3.17 total goals per game suggests their matches have been eventful, albeit often not in their favour. Currently languishing in 13th position with just six points from eight games, DC United face an uphill battle to turn their fortunes around and climb the Major League Soccer table.

Recent home/away form

New York Red Bulls

The New York Red Bulls have been in impressive form at home, remaining unbeaten in their last six matches with four wins and two draws. They are currently on a three-game winning streak in Major League Soccer, showcasing their dominance at the Red Bull Arena. The team have been particularly prolific in attack, scoring an average of 2.17 goals per game, whilst maintaining a solid defence, conceding just 1.17 goals per match. Their matches have been entertaining affairs, with 67% of games seeing both teams score and over 2.5 goals. The 3-3 draw against Real Salt Lake in a friendly stands out as a particularly high-scoring encounter. With two clean sheets in their last six home games, the Red Bulls have demonstrated their ability to shut out opponents when needed, contributing to their positive goal difference of +6.

DC United

DC United's recent away form has been a cause for concern, with the team struggling defensively and experiencing some heavy defeats. The Black-and-Red have conceded a staggering 18 goals in their last six away matches, averaging 3 goals conceded per game. Notably, they have suffered two particularly high-scoring losses in their most recent outings, falling 6-1 to San Jose Earthquakes and 4-1 to Orlando City. Despite managing to score in all six matches, their defensive frailties have overshadowed their attacking efforts. The team are currently on a run of three away games without a win, including two consecutive losses in Major League Soccer. Interestingly, all six of their recent away fixtures have seen both teams score and over 2.5 goals, indicating a trend of open, high-scoring encounters. With no clean sheets and an average of 4.67 total goals per game, DC United's away matches have certainly been entertaining for neutral spectators, if not for their own supporters.
