New York City FC vs Toronto FC. Shape of the Teams

New York City will host Toronto in the fourth round of the MLS. The Pigeons’ recent performances have been a mixed bag. So far they have lost all three of their MLS games this season, currently ranking 14th in the Eastern Conference.

09\03\2024, New York City vs Portland Timbers: 1-2 – MLS
03\03\2024, St. Louis City vs New York City: 2-0 – MLS
25\02\2024, Charlotte vs New York City: 1-0 – ML

Toronto, in turn, demonstrated a more solid performance with two wins and one goalless draw, placing them fifth in the Eastern Conference standings.

09\03\2024, Toronto FC vs Charlotte: 1-0 – MLS
03\03\2024, New England Revolution vs Toronto FC: 0-1 – MLS
25\02\2024, Cincinnati vs Toronto FC: 0-0 – MLS

New York City will look forward to bouncing back after a shaky start of the season, hoping the home advantage in this game could propel them to victory.

With their ability to create chances and score goals, Toronto is looking to continue their unbeaten streak by securing points on the road against New York.

New York City FC vs Toronto FC Prediction, Odds

Pick: New York City to Win
Odds: -145 (Tonybet)

New York City FC have shown inconsistent results in recent games and are in need of a pivotal turnaround. With the game taking place on their home turf, a win against Toronto presents the opportunity to get back on track after two back-to-back losses.

Considering New York’s players’ form and motivation, the scales tilt favourably toward a home victory. Despite a heartbreak against the Portland Timbers, where they were leading for most of the match but eventually conceded two late goals, this game could see them change their trajectory and climb in the MLS standings.

At the same time, if we look at H2H stats, New York beat Toronto twice in a row, winning 3-0 and 5-0, respectively. While star-studded names may not headline their roster, I think they can halter their unfavourable run in the MLS and secure a win in this clash.

New York City FC vs Toronto FC Betting Tip

Pick: Both Teams to Score
Odds: -129 (Tonybet)

Toronto have demonstrated good efficiency in recent matches by scoring goals and showing attacking spirit. Even in the games they lost, they’ve managed to leave a mark on the scoreline, which shows exactly how dangerous they can be in the final third.

Digging into the stats, six out of eight New York City matches ended with both teams scoring. The Pigeons, who struggle defensively, haven’t kept a clean sheet for ten matches in a row.

On the other side, Toronto’s matches have been characterized by both scoring and conceding goals. With the attacking power from marquee signings such as Lorenzo Insigne and Federico Bernardeschi, I think it will not be a problem for them to score at least one goal.
