New York RB host St. Louis City in a league game where both sides need points for different reasons. The hosts sit 8th and want to climb toward safety, while the visitors are 3rd and pushing for the top group. Last time out New York RB had just won 1-0 for a second straight win, after earlier losing 0-2 and drawing 0-0. New York RB's recent form is still not steady, but their last two games brought wins without conceding. The defense is starting to look like a foundation again, while the attack still relies mainly on a single goal per game. St. Louis City, meanwhile, are clearly the hotter side, on a winning run and unbeaten in their last five. Their attack scores frequently, with 3-1 and 4-2 results, but their defense still shows gaps at times. Based on the expected lineups, New York RB will likely set up in a 4-3-3 with Emil Forsberg controlling the midfield and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting as the main striker. St. Louis City are expected to come out in a 3-4-3 that pushes both wing-backs high. The game should open up with exchanges from the start, since both teams have clear attacking moments, but the first half and second half may look different — the hosts often get chances from set pieces and midfield play, while the visitors tend to press harder as the game goes on.
