New York City vs Atlas Predictions and Free Betting Tips from expert tipsters when they go head-to-head in the Leagues Cup on Monday, 24 July 2023.
New York City are set to host Atlas at Citi Field for their upcoming cup fixture. New York City enter the contest following an improvement in performances prior to their previous defeat. The hosts sit 13th in the MLS Eastern Conference table following a 2-1 loss to the Philadelphia Union last time out.
Their opponents, Atlas have had a mixed start to their Liga MX Apertura campaign in Mexico. After a 0-0 draw with Santos Laguna in their most recent encounter, they are seventh in their domestic ranking.
The only time these two clubs met was in September 2022. New York City managed to deliver a 2-0 win that day.
We are counting on New York City to pull off a win here. They have a solid home record heading into this one. They have won four and drawn four of their past ten home matches. They are also currently unbeaten in their last three home matches.
Atlas, on the other hand, are currently struggling for form on the road. Their last two away matches have both ended in defeats without them scoring a single goal.
We don’t expect a flurry of goals in this match. In four of NYCFC’s last five matches, there have been fewer than 2.5 goals scored. Also, Atlas has not scored a single goal in their two away matches this season.
By the looks of things, a low-scoring affair is expected this time out.
New York City has a solid home record heading into the match. They have won four and drawn four of their past ten home matches. They also have an excellent record against Atlas. Furthermore, Atlas has had a poor away record going into the match.
A victory for New York City at 1.90 odds will be our main betting pick here considering all the observations.
For the second tip, under 2.5 goals at 1.85 odds seems very promising. Considering both teams recent goal involvement in their matches and their past results.
