New York Red Bulls hosts FC Cincinnati in the Round of 16 of the 2023 US Open Cup on Tuesday, May 23 at Red Bull Arena to make it to the quarterfinal against the game-winner between Birmingham Legion and Charlotte.
The Red Bulls are currently on a four-match unbeaten streak across all competitions and have posted three straight victories at home. New York has only allowed 37 shots on goal in 14 matches played this season, which is the lowest in MLS.
FC Cincinnati is demonstrating that the progress shown in 2022 was not a fluke. They even took it to the next level in 2023, where they presently top the Supporters' Shield standings.
They are undefeated in their previous seven matches, but they are doing so in a way that few expected in 2023. This season, they have strengthened their defence, allowing only 14 goals in 16 games across all competitions.
In all competitions, Cincinnati has played 10 games at home in the TQL Stadium and managed to win them all. However, their form away hasn't been as impressive, winning only once in their five away visits.
