THE PREDICTION
Ronny Deila’s NYCFC have begun their 2021 campaign with three wins, two draws and three defeats in an inconsistently consistent start to their campaign. They come into this on the back of a 3-2 defeat at home to New England Revolution to continue a high-scoring theme whereby there has been 25 goals in their eight matches. Anton Walkes thought he had secured three points for Atlanta United on Sunday night with an 83rd minute goal only for the Georgians to collapse to a 2-2 draw. That means they have scored and conceded more than a goal per game on average this season with five draws in eight games. Both sides have the propensity to be slightly unpredictable and yet, at the same time, weirdly predictable. This one should have goals in it either way.
