New York City FC are back at Yankee Stadium to face off against Orlando City SC for the second time this season. When the teams first met in the season opener, they scored two goals a piece and settled for a draw.
The Boys in Blue are coming off back-to-back wins and hope to keep that trend alive in order to continue traveling up the table. Today's XI sees two changes with Ben Sweat in for Ronald Matarrita, who is out with a calf injury.
The offense has also seen a change too as Ismael Tajouri-Shradi comes back in for his first start since Minnesota, replacing Taty Castellanos at the sharp end. Alexandru Mitriță is fit enough for a place on the substitutes bench after recovering from an ankle injury.
It's a beautiful day in the Bronx as the City boys hope to top off their week equipped with nine points in three games. Be sure to show out for your Boys in Blue and let's get this win, #ForTheCity!
NYCFC XI: Johnson, Chanot, Sands, Callens, Tinnerholm, Sweat, Ring (C), Ofori, Tajouri-Shradi, Moralez, Héber
Subs: Stuver, Ibeagha, Rocha, Parks, Mitriță, Medina, Castellanos
