REF’s picks

Saint Louis City SC arrive in formidable form and look well-equipped to overcome a depleted New York Red Bulls side at a decent price. The visitors sit third in the West and boast a long unbeaten run, whereas the hosts are missing numerous key players to injuries and international duty despite recent clean sheets.

1. 1St. Louis bring a stellar 16-match unbeaten run into this fixture.
2. 2The Red Bulls are heavily shorthanded with several regular starters sidelined.
3. 3An away win against a reshuffled home lineup carries obvious risks if Ethan Horvath produces another stellar defensive display.
