New York City FC
NYCFC picked up a win over the Red Bulls last week by a score of 2-1. They are now sitting comfortably in 3rd place in the East for the time being, posting 47 points. They are also starting to put pressure on the number one seed, who is just one point ahead of them. This season, NYCFC has a winning road record, so playing in Vancouver should not be an issue.
The NYCFC attack has started to pick up steam as they have scored 11 times in their last 5 games overall. They are averaging 1.77 goals per game on the road, so they have no problem with an away crowd. I see them scoring in this game at least twice because the Whitecaps have been that bad.

NYCFC however, tends to allow a ton of goals on the road. On average, they allow 1.62 goals per game, but normally can find a way to limit their opponent enough to get a result. I see them holding Vancouver to just 1 goal, which will likely be enough to get another win.
Vancouver Whitecaps
The Whitecaps lost their second game in a row when they lost to Montreal in their mid-week match. They continue to sit at the bottom of the Western Conference and have just 27 points. They have a losing record at home, picking up just 4 wins in 13 games, so they are not really a tough place to play either.
The Whitecaps for some reason really struggle to score when playing at home. They average 0.93 goals per game in front of their home fans and frankly, they will be lucky to score against this NYCFC team.

The Whitecaps defending have had issues all season long, which is why they have allowed 50 goals this season. They allow an average of 1.31 goals per game at home, but have allowed 5 in their last two games overall, so I think they will concede several times here as well.
Free New York City FC vs. Vancouver Whitecaps MLS Prediction:
NYCFC is the better team and they win this game.
4* Free MLS Betting Pick: New York City FC -135
NYCFC would easily be a -200 favorite if they were playing at home, so -135 on the road looks very inviting. Vancouver will not be able to match up with New York and I will lay the juice and take NYCFC on the money line.
