New York City team news and form: Can New York City fight a two-front war?

Player to watch: Santiago Rodriguez
As we mentioned earlier in our New York City vs Queretaro predictions, Rodriguez found the net on eight occasions this season. He is a firm starter under coach Cushing’s rule, and we are sure he will play in the match against lackluster Queretaro as well.
Second player to watch: Hannes Wolf
Rodriguez may be the top scorer for New York City, but Wolf is the key creator! The latter provided his colleagues with five assists in 2024. We are convinced he will get minutes in the Leagues Cup showdown versus Queretaro.
