Two teams that will surely be in the MLS Playoffs collide before the regular season expires when Cincinnati and New York City face off at Yankee Stadium.

New York City will be in the final round thanks to a good start, as the results after June have been really bad, this separated them from the first positions and near the end of the season the team's aspirations are to displace Orlando City from the 4th place in search of a more accessible match in the Playoffs.

Perhaps the spark that was needed came in the last game when they beat NY Red Bull away from home in a game where it was the home team who were the favorites to win with odds of up to 1.95. In addition, they did so with a score of 5-1 with two goals from Martinez in the first half, but it was the veteran Moralez of 37 years who led the team to victory scoring the goal that gave it the advantage and assisting in the last.

Cincinnati is going through a similar reality to New York City, where months ago they had the best record in MLS, surprising the league. However, after the Playoffs they have been extremely inconsistent and unpredictable as well, since in the last 6 games they have never repeated the result of their previous game, the last being a defeat against Los Angeles FC.
