Recent form

Toronto FC

Toronto FC have shown mixed form in their recent fixtures, with a notable improvement in defensive solidity. The Canadian side have managed to keep three clean sheets in their last six matches, which is a positive sign for a team sitting 14th in the league table. After suffering back-to-back losses against Chicago Fire and New York Red Bulls, Toronto FC steadied the ship with a run of three consecutive draws, demonstrating their ability to grind out results. Their most recent outing saw them secure a narrow 1-0 away victory against Real Salt Lake, potentially signalling a turning point in their season. Despite their low-scoring output, averaging just 0.67 goals per game, Toronto FC have been relatively tight at the back, conceding only 0.83 goals per match over this period. The majority of their recent fixtures (67%) have been low-scoring affairs, with fewer than 2.5 goals, suggesting a cautious approach from the team as they look to climb the table.

New York City FC

New York City FC's recent form has been inconsistent, with their last six matches yielding two wins, one draw, and three losses. The team have struggled defensively, conceding nine goals in their last six games, averaging 1.5 goals conceded per match. There was a particularly high-scoring affair in their 4-3 loss to Atlanta United, which saw seven goals in total. Despite their defensive woes, NYCFC have managed to keep two clean sheets in this period. Their attacking output has been modest, scoring 1.17 goals per game on average. The team's current 10th position in the league table, with 11 points from 9 games, reflects their mixed performances. Interestingly, there's an even split between high and low-scoring matches, with 50% of their games going over 2.5 goals and 50% under.

Recent home/away form

Toronto FC

Toronto FC have been struggling at home, enduring a concerning run of four consecutive losses before managing two goalless draws in their most recent fixtures. Their goal-scoring woes are evident, having found the net only twice in their last six home matches, averaging a mere 0.33 goals per game. Defensively, they've been more solid in their latest outings, keeping clean sheets in their last two games, which has slightly improved their goals conceded per game to 1.5. The match against New York Red Bulls stands out as particularly high-scoring, with Toronto FC suffering a heavy 4-1 defeat. Despite their poor form, the team have managed to keep the majority of their home games relatively low-scoring, with 67% of matches seeing under 2.5 goals.

New York City FC

New York City FC's recent away form has been rather inconsistent, with their last six matches yielding only one win, two draws, and three losses. The team are currently experiencing a three-match winless streak on the road, which includes back-to-back defeats in their most recent outings. Defensively, NYCFC have struggled, conceding an average of 1.5 goals per game, although they have managed two clean sheets during this period. Their match against Atlanta United was particularly high-scoring, ending in a 4-3 defeat, which stands out as an anomaly given that 67% of their away games have seen under 2.5 goals. Despite their defensive frailties, NYCFC have managed to find the net in four out of these six matches, averaging one goal per game, which suggests they are capable of posing an offensive threat even in challenging away fixtures.
