Welcome to your match thread and preview for a Saturday afternoon match-up between Orlando City (3-3-2, 11 points) and New York City FC (2-1-5, 11 points) at Yankee Stadium. This is the second of the two scheduled meetings between the Eastern Conference rivals and fellow 2015 expansion teams in 2019.
These teams opened the season against each other for the third time in five seasons. That initial meeting was the first of what is already five draws on the 2019 season for the Pigeons. Maybe it shouldn’t have been a draw, but we’ll get into that more in a second.
