Toronto FC can congratulate themselves on a fine run of Over 2.5 Goals

"Greg Vanney's Toronto FC saw seven goals during their last appearance at BMO Field"

Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.774/5 in Toronto FC v New York City

Tobias Gourlay looks forward to a big serving of sports entertainment in North America tonight

Toronto FC v New York City
Thursday 00:00 (Live on Sky Sports 1)

AGF 2 AaB 0 in Denmark yesterday evening. Which means we're 2-0 up the week as well.

Today, we've found a game that's worth crossing the Atlantic for.

New York City FC head north for their latest MLS assignment and that's exactly where we think the goals count is going too. Patrick Vieira's men have seen 33 goals in their first 11 games under the Frenchman. Ninth in the table, they've scored at least twice in 4/5 away games - three of which have delivered Over 2.5 Goals in total. Going back into last season, it's 9/11 with Over 2.5 Goals.

Across the border, Greg Vanney's Toronto FC saw seven goals during their last appearance at BMO Field. Dipping back into last term, it's 11/13 with at least three match goals - and that's our bet of the day today.
