New York City FC vs Toronto FC: Prediction and odds on the Match on 04 July 2025
The Boys in Blue will hope to recover from their recent setback when they lock horns against a resurgent Toronto FC side at the Yankee Stadium on Friday. The Reds, who have now played back-to-back games without a loss for just the second time since October last year, will be keen to amass all the points against their opponent later this week.

The Boys in Blue suffered a loss on the road as they were beaten by CF Montreal. New York City, who had won against Atlanta FC and shared the spoils against Nashville SC, failed to convert their chances a few days ago. NY City operated without one of their star men, Alonso Martinez, and it was apparent the Costa Rican man wasn’t on the pitch. The game started with CF Montreal getting all the attention, and after several threats, they broke the deadlock in the 22nd minute. NY City failed to create meaningful chances at the break, firing just a shot at goal. It wasn’t their day at all, as the second half began at the same pace. Unfortunately, New York City couldn’t find a leveller as CF Montreal secured the maximum points.
The loss ended their run of back-to-back matches without a loss as they dropped down on the standings. NY City have picked up seven points from their last five games, scoring nine and conceding seven.
NY City have been very direct at home, as they have won seven of their previous ten home games. The Boys in Blue sit in ninth spot on the log, having accumulated twenty-eight points from a combined fifty-seven.
New York City Lineup
The Boys in Blue were unable to operate in their usual manner the last time they played, as Alonso Martinez (8 goals) failed to feature. They managed just two shots in the entire game, and I expect them to respond positively this time with his return.
New York City Potential Starting Lineup (4-2-3-1)
Romero—Risa, Haak, Martins, Tanasijevic—Moralez, Perea—Wolf, Fernandes, Ojeda—Aloso Martinez
Out: Jones, Gray, Sands, Parks
Head coach: Mehdi Ballouchy

The Reds moved up a place on the standings following their emphatic victory over the Portland Timbers. Everything worked for Toronto FC against a solid opposition at home as Alonso Coello opened the scoreline with just eleven minutes of play. It was total dominance for the team at home as they restricted their guests to zero shots at the break. The second half began in similar conditions as Toronto FC doubled their lead in the 56th minute, courtesy of Tyrese Spicer. Just as if the game was going to end with just two goals, Portland Timbers put the ball into their own net to wrap up a disastrous display on the road. After Toronto FC (1-1) stalemate against New York Red Bulls, they secured the maximum points in a (3-0) win over Portland Timbers.
Robin Fraser’s men were one of the most inconsistent teams in the division this campaign, but they have been pretty impressive in their last two games. With four wins in their last nineteen MLS games, Toronto FC are now three points above the bottom of the Eastern Conference.
Toronto FC have picked up seventeen points from a combined fifty-seven, scoring twenty-two (22) and conceding twenty-five (25).
Robin Fraser’s men have won twice, lost three and drawn twice on the road this season.
Toronto FC Lineup
Lorenzo Insigne and Federico Bernardeschi's contracts have now been terminated by the club after three years with NY City. Robin Fraser's men operated in another formation against Portland Timbers, and since it worked out, they might just stick with it against NY City.
Toronto FC Potential Starting Lineup (4-1-4-1)
Sean Johnson—Thompson, Long, Rosted, Petretta—Alonso Coello—Longstaff, Corbeanu, Spicer, Maxime Dominguez—Ola Brynhildsen
Out: Kerr, Derrick Etienne, Henry Wingo, Franklin, Gomis,
Head coach: Robin Fraser
