Team News

DC United
New York City FC
  • Conner Antley has a torn ACL that will need surgery. He is most likely out for the season.
  • Jackson Hopkins is doubtful with an ankle injury.
  • David Schnegg is doubtful with a calf injury.
  • Matai Akinmboni missed the last two matches with an ankle injury and is a doubt again for this match.
  • Mateusz Klich is serving a yellow card accumulation suspension.
  • Malachi Jones is out with a broken tibia/fibula.
  • Andres Perea is back to full training and could return from his leg injury in this match.
  • Matt Freese suffered an MCL sprain and is out for another week or so.
  • Julian Fernandez is serving a red card suspension.

Prediction

  • DC United are in a similar position to last season, squarely on the bubble for the playoffs at the tail end of the campaign. Last season, they missed out on the final day as results elsewhere went against them. DC will try to make a push to keep the ninth and final playoff spot in the East.
  • NYCFC have a game in hand on rival RBNY and an opportunity to cut the deficit to just one point. The fourth place spot gives home advantage, so NYCFC will be looking to get the edge in the first round.
