Lorenzo Insigne to Score Anytime
Much-admired Insigne is the sort of player who has seen everything in soccer. He’s the former Napoli captain, he’s won plenty of trophies in Europe and he’s even a Euro 2020 champion with Italy. Surely, our Toronto vs New York City prediction will succeed now that Lorenzo Insigne is fit and ready for action.
The 31-year-old superstar will be in the starting XI for coach Bob Bradley and he’ll have plenty of decent goalscoring opportunities on Sunday. What works great in his favor is the fact that he’s one hell of a set-piece taker. He’s both on penalty and free-kick duty for Toronto which boosts his chance to find the net by a landslide.
Toronto or Draw
There’s a big chance that New York City’s four-game unbeaten run might come to an abrupt end on the 30th of April. Coach Bob Bradley’s boys are looking sharper than ever with Federico Bernardesci and Lorenzo Insigne finally partnering up in the starting XI in a world-class Italian duo.
We’re convinced that as long as these two show their true skills at BMO Field, Toronto should have no issues winning a point or even three. The head-to-head record can back up our Toronto vs New York City prediction as well as the last 10 matches between the two sides ended with four victories for Bob Bradley’s team, three draws, and only three New York City triumphs.

Toronto odds: +137 – 41.0%
Draw odds: +245 – 27.0%
New York City odds: +195 – 32.0%
As we stated earlier in our Toronto vs New York City prediction, there’s not much that separates the two teams. Toronto are the expected winners at +137 with a solid 41.0% win probability while New York City have a 32.0% likelihood to get the three points. Perhaps the best way to go is to bet on Lorenzo Insigne to score as his 33.1% chance should be a tad higher, according to our soccer experts.
Toronto vs New York City Lineups & Team News
Toronto
Our top Toronto vs New York City predictions are greatly boosted by the fact that Bob Bradley will finally be able to count on his star players at the same time. Lorenzo Insigne and Federico Bernardeschi will be causing mayhem at BMO Field on Sunday as the visitors haven’t yet faced a duo as lethal as the Italian one.
Predicted lineup – Johnson (GK), Petretta, Rosted, Laryea, Osorio, Servania, Kaye, Insigne, Bernardeschi & Kerr
New York City
With 12 goals scored and 10 conceded, New York City’s display in the 2023 MLS campaign isn’t what the fans hoped for. Sure, coach Nick Cushing’s boys are in 4th place but if they continue performing the way they have been so far, 4th place is their certain peak this season.
Predicted lineup – Barraza (GK), Cufre, Chanot, Martins, Ilenic, Ledezma, Parks, Sands, Magno, Pereira & Rodriguez
Starting Lineups

*Starting lineups are usually announced 1hr before the kick-off
Player to Watch: Federico Bernardeschi
Each week we expect Federico Bernardesci to produce top-notch stuff for coach Bob Bradley and each week the former Juventus star surpasses our expectations. The 29-year-old has been sensational this season for Toronto as he scored three goals after his lung-bursting runs down the right gave fruit.
Furthermore, he also provided teammates with two assists this season and given the fact that his friend and fellow countryman Lorenzo Insigne is also going to be in the starting XI, we can only expect more quality work from Bernardeschi.
