STREAMING: MLS LIVE on ESPN+ (US), DAZN (Canada)
After opening the 2019 season with a 2-0 win over Atlanta United, D.C. United head to the Bronx on Sunday attempting to knock off another Eastern Conference powerhouse in New York City FC.
Last weekend, Luciano Acosta scored a goal and set up one by Paul Arriola in a 2-0 victory over the reigning MLS Cup champions at a rain-soaked Audi Field. In the Florida sunshine, NYCFC raced out to a two-goal halftime lead on strikes from Ebenezer Ofori and Alex Ring, but settled for a 2-2 draw against Orlando City SC.
In 2018, the Black-and-Red earned a 1-1 draw at Yankee Stadium and won 3-1 at home as part of their late-season playoff push.
