FORWARD:
ADVANTAGE:
Red Bulls

Now this is the matchup everyone wants to see. Thierry Henry and Kenny Cooper have been steamrolling the opposition early this season. Chris Wondolowski has been doing it on a steady clip for years. Who will win this one out?

Well, one major point against Wondo is that target forwards Stephen Lenhart and Alan Gordon will be out for this match. The star striker is not a target man, which will immediately put a crimp on the deliver of the San Jose wingers.

The Red Bulls, for once, are the healthier team up top. With that kind of firepower and momentum, it is easy to say New York has the advantage at forward.
