New York City vs Orlando City SC Prediction & Picks - Major League Soccer
by Simon Day in Major League Soccer Picks
New York City FC will be looking to land their first win of the new MLS season, when they welcome Orlando City to the Yankee Stadium on Saturday evening. Pascal Jansen's side came agonizingly close to winning their opening day clash with Inter Miami, but a last ditch equalizer from Miami's Telasco Segovia meant they had to settle for a point. They also conceded a late goal last weekend, as they fell to a 1-0 defeat at Los Angeles.
Orlando City got their first win of the season last weekend, thanks to a thrilling 4-2 victory at home to Toronto. That result helped banish the memory of a week one loss to Philadelphia Union. However, big question marks still remain over the Orlando defence and coach Óscar Pareja will need to tighten things up at the back if his side are to match last season's run to the Eastern Conference final.

Our New York City vs Orlando City SC Prediction
This is a huge game for New York, as they will be desperate to get their first win of the season on the board. The good news for them is that despite their victory last weekend, Orlando are looking decidedly below par in defense. That being said, Óscar Pareja's side have shown plenty of attacking flair in the early stages of the campaign and it is hard to see them failing to score on Saturday. Picking a winner in this one is tricky, but we are confident there will be plenty of goals. Our prediction for New York City FC vs Orlando City is: Over 3.5 goals.
