Draw
Edmonton produced a steely performance to get the first three points of the campaign against Forge. However, they might struggle against the physical approach of York United. Furthermore, the strength of Jim Brennan’s team in set pieces could be a problem for the home team. In the past when these two teams have come up against each other, they have produced a stalemate in two out of the last five meetings with York United winning the remaining three. This time around, a stalemate could be on the cards.
Total goals under 2.5
Edmonton grabbed their first goals of the campaign against Forge after drawing a blank against Atletico Ottawa in the first game. The team has shown a lot of spirit to keep chasing goals. Meanwhile, York United are yet to keep a clean sheet, but they do have the capability of scoring from set piece situations.
Both teams to score – yes
This match should see an even contest with goals from Edmonton and York United cancelling out each other. York United have scored in back-to-back league matches but they have also conceded in both league games. They have sufficient strength to get a goal or two, while Edmonton can exploit York’s defensive problems.

Edmonton vs York United: Canadian Premier League Match Preview
Edmonton
Edmonton come on the back of a first victory since 2019. The sense of relief at the club is immense, but the team did play extremely well against Forge to come out as deserving winners. The big challenge for Alan Koch’s men will be to build on this result.
York United
York United have made sure that they make the most of set piece situations, but the team continues to be quite poor in open play. Coach Jim Brennan, though, is not too worried about this statistic and it is likely to see York United continue to play in a familiar way. This might mean trouble for opposition even when they are on top of the game, as it takes only a second to score from a set piece situation.
