Analysis
Both model families pick New York City FC, rating it at 42.7% — a consensus worth weighing, not a certainty.
The two have met 3 times, and New York City FC won 1 of 3. 3 games is too small a sample to build on, so it doesn't feed the forecast.
They arrive from very different football. Philadelphia Union's last 5 produced 25 goals — 5.0 per game; they scored in 5 of them and conceded in 2. New York City FC's 5 produced 10, at 2.0 per game.
What to keep in mind
- Philadelphia Union's games are very high-scoring at 5.0 goals — more goals means more variance and less predictability.
