5 - Matches without a loss
Orlando City’s 12-game unbeaten run was the talk of MLS this fall, but the Lions have their own mini-streak going against playoff opponents New York City FC. Orlando has gone five straight games in all competitions without a loss against NYCFC, including the “Running of the Wall” game in the 2019 U.S. Open Cup quarterfinals. The Lions and Pigeons drew twice in the 2019 regular season, while Orlando took all three points in a bubble blowout in July and the teams split the spoils at Exploria last month.
5 (again) - It pays to have Cash
Chris Mueller has scored 19 times in an Orlando shirt in all competitions, and a staggering five of those goals have come against NYCFC, all in the last two years.
