Player to watch: Luciano Acosta

We have no idea where Acosta’s tremendous form might take FC Cincinnati this season, but one thing is certain – he deserves to be the player to watch in our New York Red Bulls vs Cincinnati prediction. After all, he already made 25 goal returns for his team. Seeing as we are only halfway through the season, we can’t wait to see what he will come up with for the remaining part of the campaign.

Second player to watch: Lewis Morgan

Coach Noonan must be very careful with how he approaches his Morgan problem. After all, Lewis is the leading finisher for the Bulls, with 10 goals bagged already.
