Player to watch: Federico Bernardeschi
If our New York Red Bulls vs Toronto predictions succeed, it would be because coach Schwarz has found a way to nullify tremendous Bernardeschi. The Italian winger is the leading Toronto finisher, with eight goals to his name in 2024 already.
Second player to watch: Lorenzo Insigne
The 33-year-old Insigne is the second player we’d like to turn your attention to, as the former Napoli superstar is starting to perform better and better. Since the start of the season, Insigne scored four goals and supplied teammates with five assists.
