With New England still hunting for their first win of the season and battling injuries to key players Campana, Chancalay, and Miller, Saturday's clash at Gillette Stadium promises to be an uphill battle for the home side.
The New York Red Bulls, fresh off a 2-1 victory over Toronto and powered by Emil Forsberg's recent brace, enter as slight favorites despite missing midfielder Felipe Carballo through suspension.
All eyes will be on whether the more cohesive Red Bulls can capitalize on the Revolution's offensive struggles when New England hosts New York RB in what could be a pivotal early-season matchup.

New England vs. New York RB preview
The New England Revolution head into Saturday's clash at Gillette Stadium still searching for that elusive first win of the season, with their attacking woes continuing to plague their campaign.
Emil Forsberg will be the man to watch for the Red Bulls after his impressive brace against Toronto, though they'll have to make do without Felipe Carballo who's serving a one-game suspension following his red card before the international break.
The Revs' medical room remains crowded with Campana, Chancalay, and Miller all sidelined, further complicating their quest to jumpstart their sputtering offense.
Despite the most likely scoreline pointing to a 1-1 draw, the Red Bulls enter as slight favorites and seem to have more cohesion as a unit than their struggling hosts.
History hasn't been kind to New England in big matches—they've reached five MLS Cup finals without lifting the trophy, though they did claim the North American SuperLiga back in 2008 by defeating Houston Dynamo on penalties.
The Metros are looking to build momentum following their 2-1 win over Toronto, and they'll fancy their chances against a Revolution side that's struggling to find its identity.
Gillette Stadium—also home to the significantly more successful Patriots—provides a familiar setting for the Revs, but home advantage might not be enough to overcome their current form issues.
I'm expecting the Red Bulls to edge this one 2-1, continuing New England's frustrating start to the season while establishing themselves as serious contenders in the Eastern Conference.
