After a pair of wild finishes a week ago, both New York City FC and the San Jose Earthquakes head into this weekend's match at Yankee Stadium unbeaten in their previous two Major League Soccer encounters.

We say: New York City FC 3-2 San Jose Earthquakes
A week ago, these two teams showed a ton of potency in the attacking third, along with plenty of vulnerabilities at the back.

The opening of GEODIS Park in Tennessee will feature a rematch of the 2021 Eastern Conference Semi-Final of Major League Soccer when Nashville SC host the Philadelphia Union on Sunday.
In that encounter a year ago, the Boys in Gold failed to keep their composure from the spot, missing all four of their penalty kicks as the Union won 2-0 in a shootout, advancing to the third round.
We say: Nashville SC 1-1 Philadelphia Union
These are two of the most pragmatic sides in MLS, who are rock solid at the back and do not take a lot of chances unless they need to.
