Austin vs New York City prediction: Historic first game to end in a tie

Key Stats

  • Austin shared the spoils in six of their Major League Soccer games so far.
  • Three of New York City’s last four games at home resulted in goals galore.
  • New York City did still record two draws this season, despite playing so admirably well recently.

Correct score prediction: Austin 1-1 New York City

Both of New York City’s draws in Major League Soccer this season had 1-1 on the scoreboard. Seeing as the game on the 7th will be an away match for in-form New York City, we believe a 1-1 draw shouldn’t raise any eyebrows.

Pre-game odds and win probability: Austin to put an end to New York City’s run

  • HOME: +140 – 40.2%
  • DRAW: +250 – 27.0%
  • AWAY: +190 – 32.8%

*These Austin vs New York City odds are subject to change

As you can see from the odds above, we have Wolff’s Austin down as the expected winners, with a massive 40.2% win probability ahead of the kick-off. The odds are valued at +140, which means the home team has the three points up for grabs.

New York City are the underdogs in this competition, with a 32.8% chance of winning, but we do believe the visitors will do well, despite what the bookies say.

Player to watch: Santiago Rodriguez

Another Major League Soccer round, another goal by Rodriguez. Such was the case last week when New York City faced the Lions. Coach Cushing’s attacking midfielder was at his lethal best and managed to score a quick 15th-minute opener for his team.

Second player to watch: Matt Freese

A player who can prove our Austin vs New York City predictions correct, Freese is among the best shot-stoppers in MLS right now. Yes, he did concede twice in the match against Orlando City, but he also made six crucial saves.
