Winners now of three of their last four in their suddenly impregnable BMO Field fortress, Toronto FC play host to the New York Red Bulls on Wednesday night. TFC is now in sixth place in the Eastern Conference, with three wins and a draw in their last five matches overall. The Red Bulls come off a loss last weekend in Kansas City which ended a two-game winning run - both by shutout. After allowing just four goals all season to that point, the Red Bulls were hit for three goals in K.C. - all from Eddie Johnson.
