This week, the excitement of the 2024 MLS season calendar continues, and one of the most remarkable games we will have on matchday 13 will be between DC United and NY Red Bulls.

In the Eastern Conference, Inter Miami continues to confirm their status as favorites and lead the standings by three points over FC Cincinnati. On the other hand, things are much more balanced in the West, as the leader, Real Salt Lake, has an advantage of only four points over sixth-placed Colorado, so we can expect high-level clashes in the coming days.

Why Bet on the DC United?

DC United has had an up-and-down season so far in the Eastern Conference. While it is not a bad start, the team has not been able to find the formula that would lead them to a positive streak and thus climb up the standings.

Currently, the capital team is in seventh place in the Eastern Conference, with a record of four wins, five ties, and three losses, with 19 goals for and 19 against. While the offense has been working so far, they need the defense to be much more solid and prolific. Otherwise, scoring goals will not save them from drawing or losing games.

DC United are coming from mixed results in their last four games played. First of all, they lost to NYC FC by 0-2. Then, they beat Seattle Sounders by 3-2, drew against Philadelphia Union by 2-2, and, in their most recent match, they got a great away win against Atlanta United.

Why Bet on the NY Red Bulls?

On the other hand, the NY Red Bulls keep trying to be one of the teams that will challenge Inter Miami at the top of the MLS Eastern Conference. Right now, the Big Apple side sits in third place in the standings with a record of five wins, five draws, and two losses and is seven points behind Inter Miami with a game less.

The Red Bulls are a team with a really good offense, but, their defense has left a lot of space to be exploited by the rivals. That is the main reason why the team is not directly fighting for the first place in the conference.

However, the season is still young, and this team has the tools to make a splash and make FC Cincinnati and the conference leaders uncomfortable. They come into matchday 13 after losing to Inter Miami by a terrible score of 2-6 and beating the New England Revolution 4-2 in their last two matches.

Final Betting Analysis: DC United vs. NY Red Bulls

In the last 20 matches between these two teams, the NY Red Bulls dominate the series with 11 wins. On the other hand, DC United has accumulated only three victories, while six games have ended in draws.
