The New England Revolution will be looking to redeem themselves after a disappointing start to their campaign when they face off against Toronto at Gillette Stadium this Sunday. In their previous match, the Revolution suffered a 3-1 defeat against DC United, with Carles Gil managing to score the equalizer before Christian Benteke completed a hat-trick for the opposition. This loss was a setback for the Revolution, who had hoped to start their season on a positive note.
On the other hand, Toronto managed to secure a goalless draw against FC Cincinnati in their season opener. While a draw may not be the ideal result, it did put an end to Toronto’s winless streak in the MLS, which had stretched to eight games. Despite this, Toronto will be eager to secure a victory and start building some momentum for the season ahead.
When it comes to head-to-head matchups, the New England Revolution have historically had the upper hand against Toronto. Out of their 39 meetings, the Revolution have emerged victorious on 16 occasions. This favorable record will undoubtedly give the hosts a boost of confidence as they prepare to face their opponents.
With the support of their home fans, the New England Revolution will be determined to bounce back from their opening loss and secure a much-needed victory. They will be looking to their key players, such as Carles Gil, to step up and make a significant impact on the game. A win in this Eastern Conference clash would not only help the Revolution regain their footing but also provide a platform for them to build upon as the season progresses.
