Heaps of Goals: New England's boss sees Over 2.5 Goals in more than 60% of away games

"44/72 Revolution away matches have produced Over 2.5 Goals, including 16/21 since the start of last season"

Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 2.0621/20 in DC Utd v New England

The Revolution are here and Tobias Gourlay expects to see some fireworks in DC on Saturday night

DC Utd v New England
Saturday 22:30

Las Palmas 4 Espanyol 0 on Gran Canaria last night. The Parakeets are just a little pile of feathers on the floor, but we're flying high. That's four winners so far this week.

Today we're crossing the Atlantic in pursuit of another high-scoring game. DC United have erred on the side of recklessness ever since Ben Olsen seized the reins 177 MLS games ago. The Robert F Kennedy Memorial Stadium has seen Over 2.5 Goals in 50/89 of those games (56%), including 12 of the most recent 15.

Jay Heaps has been in charge of New England for a similarly long time and as an even stronger trend to his name. During his tenure, 44/72 Revolution away matches (61%) have produced Over 2.5 Goals, including 16/21 since the start of last season.
