New York find themselves bearing down on the top two in the Easter Conference, with just four points separating them and Chicago Fire in the table. They have to maintain their pace to be in with a chance of sneaking up into second.

Match Preview

Ahead of our New York City FC vs Seattle Sounders preview, the hosts have lost just one of their last seven home league matches, but they’ve only managed to keep a clean sheet in just one of those positive results.

  • Atlanta United 3-1 NYCFC
  • NYCFC 2-2 New England
  • NYCFC 2-1 Philadelphia Union
  • New York RB 1-0 NYCFC

After losing 1-0 to rivals New York Red Bulls in the US Open Cup midweek, the hosts will be itching to set the record straight. Their goalscoring record has been good at Yankee Stadium, where they have found the back of the net at least two times in five of their last six games on their own patch.

The visitors' terrible form on the road is a huge factor in our New York City FC vs Seattle Sounders predictions. Just one win in their last eight fixtures on the road points towards another difficult evening in the MLS away from CenturyLink Field.

  • Seattle Sounders 1-0 Real Salt Lake
  • Seattle Sounders 1-0 Portland Timbers
  • Colombus Crew 3-0 Seattle Sounders
  • Seattle Sounders 1-0 Houston Dynamo

New York City FC vs Seattle Sounders Prediction and Betting Advice

The hosts will be relying on David Villa to bring them home three points this weekend, as the Spaniard has netted eight goals in his first 14 league outings of the season. Against a Seattle team that doesn’t travel well, he should be capable of adding to his tally.

According to our New York City FC vs Seattle Sounders picks, the visitors shouldn’t be expecting to pull off any miracles on the road, with three points to go to NYCFC in their hunt to try and close the gap on second-placed Chicago Fire.
