The New York Red Bulls are hosting New York City FC on Saturday in the New York Derby at Sports Illustrated Stadium.
New York will see Emil Forsberg captain the side, lining up with Julian Hall and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting in the attack.
The Red Bulls are coming off a 2-0 win over CF Montréal, which saw Forsberg record his 10th MLS assist of the season.
Wiki Carmona, Gustav Berggren and Ronald Donkor all get the nod to start at the opening whistle.
This will be the 27th all-time regular season meeting between the Red Bulls and NYCFC, with the series being tied with both teams having a 11-11-4 mark.
Raheem Edwards, Tim Parker, Noah Eile and Kyle Duncan line up along the back. Carlos Coronel starts in net.
