Best Tip: NY City to win

A Major League Soccer win on home turf for Pascal Gastien's NY City team win in the win / draw / win market is what we're predicting. Stats suggest they're in strong form across a number of key metrics, and they should have too much for the opposition. The odds from the bookmakers suggest so too, and when that happens you've know you're not going against the market. A NY City win is the bet we'd suggest, but it could be a close one.
