The New York Red Bulls are all set to kick off their 2024 Leagues Cup campaign, and their opponent is none other than Toronto FC. This night could herald the beginning of a new era for the Red Bulls, a team that, despite many challenges, always finds a way to surprise.

It's impossible to overlook the history leading up to this clash. In 43 previous meetings, the Red Bulls have emerged victorious 23 times, tied 10, and lost just 10. At home, their dominance is even more impressive: 17 wins, 3 draws, and only 2 losses. Their 15-game unbeaten streak at Red Bull Arena stands as a testament to the fortress they've built on their home turf.

Elias Manoel is one of the stars of this spectacle. With his fourth assist in the MLS coming in the win against FC Cincinnati, Manoel joins the exclusive group of Red Bulls forwards with 10 or more goals and assists. Who can forget his stellar performance in the 3-0 victory over Toronto in June?

We also have Lewis Morgan, a true whirlwind on the field with 12 goals in 21 MLS matches this season. And Wiki Carmona, with his four goal contributions in the last seven games, shows that the Red Bulls don't rely on a single player but on a strong and cohesive team effort.

Toronto FC comes in with high spirits following their victory over CF Montréal, where Richie Laryea scored his first goal of the season. This win gives the Canadian team a boost as they aim to break their negative streak against the Red Bulls. However, playing at Red Bull Arena is a challenge that few can overcome.
