New York City II host Chattanooga at Belson Stadium on 21 June 2026 in MLS Next Pro group-stage action. The fixture is scheduled for a 23:00 UTC kick-off and comes in the middle of the 2026 season, with both clubs jostling for position in the Eastern Conference and their respective divisional races. For anyone studying New York City II vs Chattanooga stats, this match offers a clear clash between a high-scoring visitor and a home side that has been inconsistent but dangerous on its own pitch.

New York City II vs Chattanooga Timeline & Historical Context

The New York City II vs Chattanooga timeline in MLS Next Pro begins with a dramatic contest on 27 March 2024. In a Regular Season – 4 fixture at Belson Stadium at St John's University in Queens, New York, New York City II hosted Chattanooga. The match finished 1-1 after extra time, with Chattanooga leading 1-0 at half-time before New York City II levelled in the second half.

For head-to-head purposes, that encounter is recorded as a draw, albeit one that showed New York City II could hold their nerve from the spot.

The next chapter in the rivalry came on 28 September 2025, again at Belson Stadium in MLS Next Pro Regular Season – 38. This time Chattanooga converted their performance into a regulation-time victory. The match was goalless at half-time, but Chattanooga found the decisive goal after the break to win 1-0 away.

With both historical meetings played in MLS Next Pro and both staged on New York City II’s home turf, the New York City II vs Chattanooga timeline is still short but already shows a pattern: tight margins, limited scoring, and Chattanooga demonstrating resilience away from home, while New York City II have only managed to turn one of those nights into a penalty shootout success rather than a league win.

Historical Statistical Verdict

History points to a finely balanced but slightly Chattanooga-leaning matchup. In the limited New York City II vs Chattanooga stats, Chattanooga hold the only outright win, a 1-0 away success, and lead the aggregate goals 2-1 across two MLS Next Pro meetings, both in New York. New York City II have shown they can compete, taking the earlier 1-1 to penalties and winning the shootout, but they have yet to convert this fixture into a league victory. Current-season trends reinforce that picture: New York City II are unpredictable, with a high-risk, high-reward profile and no draws, while Chattanooga combine a stronger points return with a more prolific attack. Taken together, the head-to-head record, venue history, and 2026 form suggest a contest where Chattanooga may carry a slight statistical edge, but the narrow margins in past meetings leave the door open for another tight encounter at Belson Stadium.
