Toronto FC, currently struggling in the league, sits second from the bottom in the Eastern Conference after a series of poor results, including three consecutive defeats and a recent 2-0 loss to Charlotte FC.

Historically, the Red Bulls have dominated their encounters with Toronto, boasting a 12-match unbeaten streak in MLS play and winning their last meeting 4-1.

Toronto has a historical disadvantage against New York teams, having lost their last eight regular-season matches against them, with their last victory dating back to April 2023.
