Toronto FC had an extra day’s rest this weekend after playing on Wednesday against the Vancouver Whitecaps, so we’ve got a Sunday afternoon matchup at BMO Field between the Reds and New York City FC.
Last time these clubs met, at the end of June, it was a 2-1 win for NYCFC at Yankee Stadium, as Jo Inge Berget scored a brace to complete a comeback. TFC did beat NYCFC 4-0 at home once last season, of course.
It’s hard to tell how strong TFC’s squad will be today, with the second leg of the Canadian Championship final coming up midweek.
