Nashville Soccer Club hosts the New York Red Bulls at GEODIS Park on Sunday, and our Nashville Soccer Club vs New York Red Bulls prediction leans firmly toward the Supporters' Shield winners.

The Red Bulls have won 4 of their last 10 games against all opponents. Four defeats in six MLS outings, capped by the loss to New England, have them in a genuine slump. Julian Hall has been the bright spot, matching Landon Donovan's record for goal contributions by an MLS teenager.

Nashville Soccer Club vs New York Red Bulls Prediction & Best Picks
Our Prediction
Our prediction is a Nashville win, with the Red Bulls getting on the scoresheet along the way. The projection has the hosts outscoring the visitors 2.26 goals to 1.25, built on Nashville's sharp finishing and its threat down the right through Cristian Espinoza. New York's counterattacks and through balls are good enough to find a goal, but a 21st-placed side scrapping for points is a big ask against the best team in the league.
Best Picks
Nashville Soccer Club to win. The league leaders are at home and undefeated in their last 8 MLS games. This is a play in the Moneyline market, and it is the cleanest of our best picks for this matchup. The projection hands Nashville a 60.1% win probability, and the hosts' finishing should tell against a Red Bulls defense that struggles with set pieces.
Both Teams To Score: Yes. The model projects goals at both ends. This one lives in the Both Teams To Score market. The projection puts both teams scoring at 63.8%, and the Red Bulls' knack for counterattacks gives them a route to goal even at GEODIS Park. A projected total of 3.51 goals points to an open afternoon.
Nashville Soccer Club vs New York Red Bulls Same Game Parlay
Our Same Game Parlay for Sunday's matchup leans on three player props and a Nashville home goals line.
Hany Mukhtar in the Anytime Goalscorer market. He has found the net in 6 of his last 7 MLS appearances and comes in fresh after being rested against Philadelphia.
Julian Hall Over 2.5 in the Player Shots market. The forward has attempted 3+ shots in each of his last 6 league outings, and the Red Bulls' counters run through him.
Sam Surridge Over 0.5 in the Player Shots On Target market. The striker has tested the goalkeeper at least once in 9 of the last 10 MLS games he has played.

Nashville Soccer Club vs New York Red Bulls Talking Points
The party is already planned, with Nashville lifting the Supporters' Shield on the field at GEODIS Park after the final whistle, so the hosts will want a performance to match. The betting market has Nashville as clear favorites on the moneyline, although the consensus price on the hosts has eased since it opened. Keep an eye on the Red Bulls' youngsters too. Adri Mehmeti, just 17, became the youngest player in franchise history to record multiple assists in a single MLS game when he did it against New England in late October. If he finds Julian Hall in behind, Nashville's back line will have its hands full.
