Here are some important numbers to keep in mind ahead of the second leg on Saturday.

• 0 – Thierry Henry will play in his first ever match at Gillette Stadium in the second leg of the Conference Finals on Saturday. Jamison Olave, who similarly avoids playing on turf due to health concerns, will feature in his second match at Gillette Stadium in six seasons.
• 1.25 – Luis Robles has recorded a 1.25 goals against average in four playoff matches this season. The goalkeeper has enjoyed much success this year with 111 saves in the regular season, enough for second in MLS, and is also nominated for MLS Save of the Year for an incredible double-save against the Seattle Sounders.
• 2 – The Red Bulls will need to score a minimum of two goals to have a chance of defeating New England and advancing to the MLS Cup Final. New York has already beaten New England at Gillette Stadium 2-0 earlier this season and will need a similar scoreline again this weekend. New York can clinch the series and win the conference with a 2-0 victory, or force extra-time with a 2-1 win. Check out the various second leg scenarios here.
