The New York Red bulls face the Houston Dynamo at home on Saturday, March 19, at 7 p.m. ET. The Red Bulls look to end their goal drought and capture their first win after two losses to begin the 2016 season.
Coverage of Saturday’s match will begin at 6:30 p.m. ET (TV: MSG2, MSG GO; RADIO: Red Bulls Radio English/Spanish on TuneIn).
Here are some numbers to know before the Red Bulls’ clash with Houston:
4: Luis Robles has recorded four career regular season shutouts in seven games played against Houston Dynamo. The goalkeeper, who last week was nominated for MLS Save of the Week, has a combined 1.00 goals against average versus the Dynamo.
5: The Red Bulls have won the last five meetings against Houston at Red Bull Arena. In the five wins, they have won by a combined score of 10-0.
6: Bradley Wright-Phillips has six career goals in six games played against the Dynamo, including a hat trick at Red Bull Arena in 2014. The forward has also recorded two assists against Houston.
11: New York has hosted 11 regular season home games against Houston and has never lost. The Red Bulls are 8-0-3 all-time in those matches.
20: Lloyd Sam needs just one goal and two assists to join the Red Bulls’ 20 & 20 club. In joining this club, Sam would be among only four other players in franchise history who have tallied 20 goals and 20 assists.
