The 2022 Major League Soccer campaign returns this weekend and will see the New York Red Bulls host DC United at the Red Bull Arena on Saturday.
The New York Red Bulls have had mixed results in the league this season but have particularly struggled for form of late. They were beaten 2-0 by Inter Miami in their last game and were fortunate not to have lost by a larger margin as they were constantly ripped apart by the counter attacks of their opponents.
The Red Bulls have picked up 20 points from 13 games this season and sit fifth in the Eastern Conference, four points behind the Philadelphia Union at the top. They will be looking to shake off their latest result and return to winning ways on Saturday.
Like their hosts, DC United have endured a tough season. They played out a 2-2 draw against Toronto FC last time out, taking the lead twice and losing it twice in a game they very much deserved to win.
DC United sit 11th in the Eastern Conference with just 14 points from 12 games. They will be targeting maximum points this weekend as they look to move up the table.

DC United are without a win in their last four games across all competitions, failing to score any goals in half those games. They are winless in their last three away league games and could struggle here.
