The New York Red Bulls (4-1-3, 15 pts.) head out West to battle Los Angeles FC (3-3-2, 11 pts.) on Saturday, April 20 at BMO Stadium.
Here are the Keys to the Game, presented by Toyota:
From Distance
New York and LAFC have both had success in forcing opposing teams to take long-range shots this season. The two clubs sit in the top three in the league for average opponent shooting distance at over 19 yards out, each.
Both clubs will look to continue this trend, forcing shots from distance, when they meet up on Saturday night.
Top Duo
Lewis Morgan leads MLS in goals. Dante Vanzeir leads MLS in assists. Their connection has been key to New York’s early season success.
If both, or either, can get on the scoresheet on Saturday, it will be a good sign for RBNY.
Goals Against
New York is tied for the league lead in goal against, allowing just seven goals this season. LAFC, on the other side, have let in 12 goals.
New York’s stingy defense and goalkeeping will look to propel them to points on Saturday night.
