The Red Bulls host Orlando City SC at Red Bull Arena for the sixth time in the all-time series. New York is 4-1-0 all-time against Orlando at RBA, winning the last four matches and outscoring their opponent, 9-3, during the stretch. The Red Bulls won their most recent match against OCSC, 1-0, on October 28, 2018 to earn their third Supporters' Shield in franchise history.

New York exploded offensively in their home opener against San Jose, tallying four second-half goals en route to a 4-1 win to begin their 2019 MLS home slate. The Red Bulls recorded their 21st league match with at least four goals at Red Bull Arena and 23rd across all competitions. New York has been held scoreless at Red Bull Arena in just 20 league matches and 25 matches across all competitions.

One of New York's three goal-scorers against San Jose was Bradley Wright-Phillips, who snapped his longest scoreless streak as a Red Bull at 10 matches across all competitions. Prior to Saturday's score, Wright-Phillips last goal came against at San Jose on October 6, 2018. His tally on Saturday raised his career league total to 107, just one goal shy of tying Jason Kreis for seventh all-time in league history. Wright-Phillips also added San Jose's goalkeeper Daniel Vega to his goalkeeper graveyard as Vega became the 37th different MLS keeper BWP has scored against.
