NY Red Bulls vs. NY City (Sunday, 6.00pm)
A big three points in the Eastern Conference playoff race of Major League Soccer will be up for grabs on Sunday as the New York Red Bulls host New York City FC from Red Bull Arena.
The Pigeons are winless in four straight games, sitting only three points above their state rivals, the Red Bulls, who come into this match with points in six successive fixtures.
We say: New York Red Bulls 1-0 New York City FC
Momentum at this stage of the year is vital, and while the Red Bulls have not looked spectacular, the breaks have been going their way which has not been the case for their rivals from the Bronx who have struggled to score, while conceding too many quality opportunities away from home.

Vancouver vs. Kansas (Monday, 3.00am)
BC Place Stadium will be the site of a critical MLS fixture this Sunday, as the Vancouver Whitecaps host Sporting Kansas City, in a match with huge playoff implications for the Canadians.
The Caps are a point back of Minnesota United for that final spot in the Western Conference after a 4-1 defeat to the Seattle Sounders last Saturday, while the Wizards trail the Rave Green for first place by five points, with only six regular-season games to play.
We say: Vancouver Whitecaps 1-1 Sporting Kansas City
The Caps have only lost once at home since returning to BC Place, and even though their record against KC is not great, they have put together some solid performances against the top teams in MLS this year,and they should be able to find a way to earn a result in this one.
KC have been clinical in the final third this season but have not been as precise away from home, getting shut out in two of their last three road fixtures.
