Recent form

New York Red Bulls

Based on the provided information, the New York Red Bulls are currently experiencing a challenging period in their recent form. Despite holding the 4th position in the league with 44 points from 30 games, they have not secured a win in their last six matches across all competitions. Their recent record shows four draws and two losses, indicating a struggle to convert draws into victories. The team has been consistently scoring, with goals in five out of six games, but they've also failed to keep a clean sheet in any of these matches. Their goal difference of -3 over this period suggests defensive vulnerabilities. The most recent game against Atlanta United ended in a high-scoring 2-2 draw, which is notable as 67% of their last six games have seen under 2.5 goals. The Red Bulls' ability to score in most games (83% of matches saw both teams score) is a positive sign, but their challenge lies in outscoring opponents and tightening up their defense.

New York City FC

New York City FC's recent form has been characterized by inconsistency and defensive struggles. The team has gone six games without a win, drawing four and losing two, which indicates a concerning trend. Notably, their defense has been porous, conceding 14 goals in the last six matches (2.33 per game) and failing to keep a clean sheet. The 5-1 loss to Philadelphia Union stands out as a particularly heavy defeat, while the 4-2 loss to Columbus Crew also highlights their defensive vulnerabilities. Despite these challenges, NYCFC has managed to score in every game, with both teams scoring in 100% of their last six matches. Their current 7th position in the league suggests they are still competitive, but their recent form raises questions about their ability to maintain or improve their standing.

Recent home/away form

New York Red Bulls

Based on the provided information, the New York Red Bulls have been struggling to secure wins at home recently, with only one victory in their last six home matches. They've been drawing frequently, with four draws in this period, including three consecutive draws in their most recent games. The team has maintained a balanced goal difference, scoring and conceding 8 goals each over these six matches, averaging 1.33 goals both for and against per game. While there aren't any particularly high-scoring games, the 3-1 win against FC Cincinnati stands out as their best offensive performance. The Red Bulls have managed only one clean sheet in these six home games, and both teams have scored in 67% of the matches. Interestingly, there's an even split between games with under and over 2.5 goals, suggesting a mix of tight contests and more open affairs at their home ground.

New York City FC

New York City FC's recent away form shows a mixed bag of results, with 1 win, 3 draws, and 2 losses in their last 6 games. The team has been consistently scoring, netting 1.5 goals per game, but their defense has been a concern, conceding 2 goals per game on average. Notably, both teams have scored in all of these matches, indicating exciting, high-scoring affairs. Two particularly high-scoring games stand out: a 4-2 loss to Columbus Crew and a 4-2 loss to FC Cincinnati, both in different competitions. The team has struggled to keep clean sheets, with none in the last 6 away games. Their ability to score consistently is promising, but their defensive vulnerabilities have prevented them from stringing together a series of wins on the road.
