In my opinion Bulls have really good chances to avoid loss in today's match up.

Currently Bulls have really good streak against Orlando as they didn't lost against them in last 4 consecutive matches. Last time both teams played each other at this stadium in April and team from New York recorded fully deserved 3:0 win: expected goals scored for Bulls 2.29, for Orlando 0.12. They coming here with big mental advantage.

Bulls have bigger experience in US Open Cup as they already played two times in final of this competition in past. Orlando never had such opportunity and for all team is something new and this kind of pressure always is not easy to handle.

Bulls coming for this game in better form - they won 7 of last 11 matches in all competitions. 3 days ago they won on away against Austin, today team coming in good mood and full of confidence. Their table situation is very comfortable - third position in conference, 10 points above Charlotte. That's why coach Struber gave a rest for key players in last match against Austin. Team is fresh and ready to go (third match in 11 days).

On the other hand for Orlando it's fourth match in 11 days and this is big difference, especially at this stage of the season. Orlando don't have such luxury situation in league table, they are only 4 points above 8th Charlotte. That is the reason why they used all key players in their last league match against Philadelphia. Orlando is not in good form at all - they recorded only one win in last 8 matches in all competitions (1:0 at home against Miami after own goal in 90+2). Orlando have big problems at both ends of the pitch: lack of creativity - in last 4 league matches in a row they had expected goals scored number below 0.99 Orlando conceded at least one goal in 12 of last 13 matches in all competitions.

On those circumstances I see very good chances for New York Red Bulls to make progress into big final!

在我看来，纽约红牛有很好的机会在今天的比赛中避免失利。

目前公牛队在对阵奥兰多的比赛中表现非常出色，他们在最近的4场比赛中都没有输给他们。上一次两支球队在 4 月份在这个体育场交手时，来自纽约的球队取得了当之无愧的 3:0 胜利：纽约红牛的预期进球数为 2.29，奥兰多队的预期进球数为 0.12。他们带着很大的心理优势来到这场比赛。

纽约红牛在美网杯上的经验更为丰富，因为他们过去已经两次打入这场比赛的决赛。奥兰多从来没有过这样的机会，对所有球队来说都是新事物，这种压力总是不容易处理。

纽约红牛以更好的状态参加这场比赛——他们在所有比赛中赢得了过去 11 场比赛中的 7 场。

3天前他们客场战胜奥斯汀，今天的球队状态很好，充满信心。他们的积分情况非常舒适——在联盟中排名第三，比夏洛特高出 10 分。这就是为什么教练 Struber 上一场对阵奥斯汀轮休了关键球员。球队很新鲜，准备好了（11 天内的第三场比赛）。

另一方面，对于奥兰多来说，这是 11 天内的第四场比赛，这是很大的不同，尤其是在本赛季的这个阶段。奥兰多在积分榜上没有如此奢侈的情况，他们只比第8名的夏洛特高4分。这就是他们在上一场对阵费城的联赛中使用所有关键球员的原因。奥兰多的状态并不好——他们在所有比赛的最后 8 场比赛中只取得了一场胜利（在 90+2 乌龙球后主场 1:0 对阵迈阿密）。奥兰多在攻防两端都有很大的问题：缺乏创造力——连续4场联赛他们预计进球数低于0.99 奥兰多在所有比赛的最后13场比赛中有12场至少失球。

在这种情况下，我认为纽约红牛很有机会进入最终的决赛！
