The New York Red Bulls host FC Cincinnati on Fan Night at Sports Illustrated Stadium on Saturday night.
Dennis Gjengaar and Marcelo Morales get the nod to start for RBNY.
This will be the 15th overall regular season meeting between the Red Bulls and FC Cincinnati, with New York holding the series advantage with a 7-4-3 mark.
Gjengaar joins the attack with Emil Forsberg, Mohammed Sofo and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting.
Forsberg scored his 11th MLS goal of the season in New York’s last match on September 27. Forsberg has now scored 20 MLS goals in his first two seasons with the club, which ties Clint Mathis for the most by a Red Bulls midfielder in their first two seasons with the club.
Morales works along the backline, joining Alexander Hack, Dylan Nealis and Tim Parker.
New York defeated FC Cincinnati, 3-1, the last time both clubs played at Sports Illustrated Stadium.
Gustav Berggren and Ronald Donkor pair up in the central midfield.
