2017 has officially started for the New York Red Bulls. They kicked it off by hosting the Vancouver Whitecaps in the first leg of the CONCACAF Champions League Quarterfinals. What did they do with the opportunity? They let Vancouver walk away with a 1-1 draw and an away goal advantage. They’ll have a chance to turn it around on Thursday when they head to the Pacific Northwest for the second leg.

After hopefully advancing in the Champions League, the Red Bulls head down to Atlanta to welcome Atlanta United to MLS and kick off the MLS Season. Can the Red Bulls pull out two wins in four days? Can they at least advance in CCL? Will Luis Robles play in both games?
