Bovada have the following odds available for this match:
Toronto FC are at -150 to win, a draw is at +290, and a New England win is at +400.
Toronto FC are one of the hottest sides in MLS history right now, and they have played very well at home. This should be enough to make them huge favorites over a so-so Revolution side that are a little lacking at times.
Toronto FC gets a big win at home to continue the very strong start to the season that they have made.
Greg Vanney will be missing center back Nick Hagglund for this match due to injury.
Italian attacking midfielder/striker Sebastian Giovinco hasn't had the season that he would have expected numbers wise. But he's accomplished so much more already and looks like he might just be a part of a team that goes all the way this time. After being so good for so long, he now has less pressure as the team around him has improved and matured. That makes a man with his eye for goal and skill on the ball all the more imposing and dangerous.
Toronto FC have three wins, a loss, and a draw in their last five matches. They won 3-2 at home over Minnesota United before drawing away to New York Red Bulls 1-1. They then won 5-0 at home over Columbus Crew before they lost 3-0 away to New England on June 3rd. Last time out, they won 2-0 at home over DC United.
Goalkeeper:Bono
Defenders:Zavaleta, Mavinga, Moor

Jay Heaps looks to have a full squad to pick from for this match.
American midfielder Lee Nguyen had a bit of a down season last year after he had a tremendous season the year before. But he's battled back this season to lead his side with an great total of goals and assists. He has six goals and five assists, which ties him for the team lead in both categories. The 30 year old has still yet to ever break in to the national team setup, but his skill cannot be denied. He's very slick on the ball and capable of carving out all kinds of chances.
New England have two losses, two wins, and a draw in their last five matches. They lost 2-1 away to New York Red Bulls before drawing 2-2 away to New York City FC. They then picked up a 3-0 home win over Toronto FC before winning 3-0 at home over Rochester Rhinos in the US Open Cup. Last time out, they lost 1-2 at home to Chicago Fire.
