Saturday’s MLS showdown in Harrison, New Jersey, brings together two playoff-caliber clubs on opposite ends of the conference map. The New York Red Bulls, boasting the best home record in MLS, will look to defend their fortress at Sports Illustrated Stadium against a rising Minnesota United side fresh off a dominant performance. The Loons (9-4-6, 33 points) enter the weekend in third place in the Western Conference, just three points off the top. Their recent run includes a strong 3-1 bounce-back victory over the Houston Dynamo after a tough 4-2 home loss to first-place San Diego FC.
