Analysis and Predictions
The Red Bulls have all to play for in this game against Nashville SC and they can not afford to lose this game. Nashville SC are not as ambitious as the Red Bulls but they are not the sort of side to sit on their laurels and hand the opposition a win. So, clearly this is a game both sides intend to win. The Red Bulls will approach the game with the plan of scoring goals and shutting the Nashville SC attack out, so I think we can expect goals in this game. Nashville SC playing at home is a huge advantage for them, so they should have a very good game and at least get a goal against the Red Bulls.
