The 2024 edition of MLS is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as New York City FC take on Toronto FC at the BMO Field on Saturday. Both teams have been impressive and have a point to prove this weekend.
New York City FC are in seventh place in the MLS Eastern Conference standings and have been inconsistent over the past year. The away side slumped to a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Colorado Rapids last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
Toronto FC, on the other hand, are in third place in the league table and have been impressive this season. The hosts eased past Saint-Laurent by a 3-0 scoreline in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
