Second-Half Start
It's not the halfway point, but the extended break has made this next stretch of games feel like the start of the second half of the season.
With seven matches over the next 30 days (four on the road), the Red Bulls will look to start their run on Friday night at Red Bull Arena.
Schweinsteiger Stopper
Bastian Schweinsteiger has been playing deep, trying to keep opposing teams off the scoreboard this season. The Red Bulls were held scoreless in their previous matchup, with the German along the back line.
