Atlantic Cup
One of the strongest rivalries in MLS rages on, with the Red Bulls looking to lock up the 2018 edition with a win on Sunday night.
New York took the first matchup, 1-0, at Audi Field in late July, and will look to pick up their second win of the season over DC at Red Bull Arena to secure the trophy for another year.
BWP vs. Rooney
Two English stars will face off on Sunday night, with Wright-Phillips getting the better of the two in the first matchup in MLS.
BWP notched his 100th league goal, becoming the fastest player to the century mark, as the game-winner in their first meeting.
