Orlando City - New York City FC
Last updated: Today, at Orlando City host New York City FC on matchday 31
Friday night at Inter&Co Stadium, Orlando City welcome New York City FC for this matchday 31 encounter in Major League Soccer. The hosts enter the fixture with momentum, having secured a convincing 4-1 victory over DC United on 17 October 2026. This recent resurgence follows a high-scoring draw against Toronto FC and a narrow win over Columbus Crew, signaling a potent attacking threat led by the expected XI of Daryl Dike, Martin Ojeda, and Antoine Griezmann. However, they must navigate the challenge without Robin Jansson and Griffin Dorsey, both sidelined due to injury.
Conversely, New York City FC arrive searching for a spark after a difficult run of results. Their recent 1-1 draw against Los Angeles FC ended a sequence of three consecutive defeats, including losses to Inter Miami CF and Chicago Fire FC. With Matt Freese expected to start in goal, the visitors face the difficult task of overturning their recent form against an Orlando side that has found its rhythm in the final third.
