New York Red Bulls vs New England Revolution prediction, preview, team news and more | MLS 2020
It's what you call a proper six-pointer as New York Red Bulls host New England Revolution at the Red Bull Arena in Harrison on Wednesday in an MLS Eastern Conference matchup. The Red Bulls played out an entertaining 2-2 draw with Chicago Fire on Sunday and have now drawn all of their last three games.
Meanwhile, New England Revolution took a point from their trip to Nashville and are currently sitting at sixth on the Eastern Conference standings, three points ahead of their Wednesday's opponents.
It's a fixture that has produced cagey affairs of late and Revolution will be looking to pull away and put some distance between themselves and the pack right behind them that's playing catch-up.
New York Red Bulls fought till the very end to eke out a point in their latest match against Chicago Fire and were saved by Brian White's goal in the 92nd minute. White spoke about his side's never-say-die attitude in the post-match interview.
"I think it shows a lot of resilience, never give up, even when we go down. We fight to the very last whistle and shows that we're able to score two goals [over the last two matches] in the final minute of the game.
Unfortunately, it came down to that kind of situation where we want to win these games instead of just tie, but it shows the character of this team to always fight no matter what."
