New England Revolution take on Toronto FC on Wednes

Looking to end their two-game winless run in the MLS, New England Revolution take on Toronto FC at Gillette Stadium on Wednesday.

The visitors are currently on a six-game losing streak and will be aiming to end that dire run.

New England Revolution failed to return to winning ways last time out as they were held to a 2-2 draw by Columbus Crew.

Caleb Porter's men fought back from two goals down to grab a hard-earned point thanks to Gyasi Zardes and an own goal from Andrew Farrell.

Prior to that, New England Revolution fell to a shock 2-1 defeat at the hands of rock-bottom FC Dallas to snap their five-game winning run.

Despite the slight dip in form, Bruce Arena’s men remain at the summit of the Eastern Conference table, three points above Orlando City SC, who have a game in hand.

Toronto FC, on the other hand, failed to end their horrid run of results last Saturday as they suffered a 7-1 mauling at the hands of DC United.

In a goal glut, seven different players got on the score sheet for DC United as they ran riot at the Audi Field Stadium.

The result condemned Toronto FC to a sixth straight defeat, while they have failed to taste victory in their last seven outings.

Chris Armas’ side have picked up just one win so far and this dire run of results has seen them crash to the bottom of the Eastern Conference table.
