¿Por qué apostar por los NY Red Bulls?

New York Red Bulls had a great season in the MLS last year but fell short at the finish line, losing the final to Los Angeles Galaxy 2-1 in what could have been their first title in history.

Now, the team led by German coach Sandro Schwarz has strengthened with Cameroonian Eric Choupo-Moting, a multiple-time champion with Bayern Munich and PSG. Alongside Emil Forsberg and Lewis Morgan, they aim to form an attack with European experience. They are joined by 20-year-old Polish talent Wiktor Bogacz, for whom they paid $2.1 million to Miedz Legnica in his home country.

However, in their first match, despite having more possession and more shots on goal than their opponent, they couldn’t break through and ended up losing 1-0 to Cincinnati.

At home last year, they won seven games, drew seven, and lost three, but they now have three draws and three losses in their previous six matches in this condition.

¿Por qué apostar por Nashville?

Nashville closed last season with the worst campaign in its history, failing to make the playoffs for the first time. They finished 13th in the Eastern Conference with 36 points, four points away from the teams that qualified for the next round.

This year, their most important signing was 21-year-old Swedish midfielder Ahmed Qasem, who arrived from Elfsborg for $4.2 million. They also brought in Uruguayan midfielder Gastón Brugman, who had a strong performance with Los Angeles Galaxy.

German playmaker Hany Mukhtar remains the team’s star, but he’s supported by other key players like Jacob Shaffelburg and Walker Zimmerman, both internationals for their respective national teams.

In their first match, they played to a scoreless draw against New England Revolution despite creating several chances. Last season, they had the second-worst attack in the league, scoring just 38 goals—only one more than the Revolution. On the road, they managed four wins, three draws, and ten losses.
