Preview

New York Red Bulls host St. Louis City in Major League Soccer on Wednesday, September 30 at 7:30 p.m. ET, with the model identifying the visitors as the likeliest winners. Both sides arrive on winning runs, and the model’s expected-goals figures point to a match with scoring potential at both ends.

The probabilities are estimates. The match is at Sports Illustrated Stadium, Harrison, and the model’s likeliest result is a St. Louis City win, while its leading exact-score forecast is a draw.

What the model expects

The model gives the outcomes in this order: a St. Louis City win (48%), then a New York Red Bulls win (28.1%), then a draw (24%). Expected goals are 1.2 for New York Red Bulls and 1.9 for St. Louis City.

The model puts over 2.5 goals at 58.8% and under 2.5 goals at 41.2%. Its both-teams-to-score figure is 61.2%; the chance that at least one side fails to score is 38.8%. These are the model’s goal projections, not bookmaker probabilities.

The likeliest exact score is 1-1 at 10.8%, followed by 0-0 at 8.4% and 0-2 at 8.3%. That score forecast is separate from the match-outcome forecast, which makes a St. Louis City win likeliest. The bookmakers’ outcome order is a St. Louis City win (51.4%), then a New York Red Bulls win (25.6%), then a draw (23%); the model gives a St. Louis City win 48%, below the bookmakers' 51.4%.

New York Red Bulls have J. Marshall-Rutty (doubtful, injury), A. Marcucci (doubtful, knee injury), J. Che (doubtful, ankle injury), O. Valencia (international duty), D. Ruiz (international duty) and R. Mosquera (international duty). The reported list includes players marked doubtful through injury and players listed as away on international duty.

Head to head

Across the last 3 meetings, New York Red Bulls won 1, St. Louis City won 1 and 1 was drawn. The most recent meeting was New York Red Bulls 3-1 St. Louis City (January 2026). The record includes wins for either side and a draw, with neither team having won more often across those meetings.

What to watch

The model’s forecast makes St. Louis City the likeliest winner, and its expected-goals figures set out the projected scoring for each side. Its leading exact score is level, even as the match-outcome forecast favours a visitors’ win.

Both teams come into the match after wins, but their latest results offer different reference points: New York Red Bulls recorded a clean-sheet victory, while St. Louis City won a match in which both teams scored. The model’s goal projections point towards a match with goals, while its exact-score list has a draw at the top.
