D.C. United takes on the New York Red Bulls tonight as a part of Rivalry Week. United got a couple days fully off to help rest and recharge, and so it looks like we will be seeing Ben Olsen’s full strength lineup. This is one of the team’s last road games of the year, and nicking any points off of the Red Bulls would be great (though obviously 3 points would be even better).
On the back line, Steven Birnbaum and Kofi Opare have forged an efficient partnership, and so they will again be together in front of their old friend Bill Hamid.
