Last weekend the Red Bulls fell in Columbus, 2-1. Anatole Abang scored his third goal in the last five games to give New York a lead, but Crew SC responded with two goals to take all three points.

New York welcomes the Revs to Red Bull Arena for the first time since the first leg of the 2014 Eastern Conference Finals. The Red Bulls fell in that match after a late goal from Jermaine Jones. A 2-2 draw in New England was not enough, and New England advanced to MLS Cup.

New York is 22-27-15 all-time against New England, including a 17-8-8 mark at home.The Red Bulls took both regular season meetings a year ago, but the Revolution dealt New York its first loss of 2015, a 2-1 defeat at New England on May 2 on the strength of goals from Charlie Davies and Teal Bunbury.

New England enters at 6-8-6, with a one-point lead over the Red Bulls in the standings. The Revs are 2-7-1 on the road in 2015. New England is coming off of a 3-0 loss to FC Dallas last weekend in the Lone Star State. 

The Revolution have not won a regular season meeting at New York since July 14, 2007.
