New York City FC head coach Domenec Torrent will have to work overtime to get the right Starting XI for his team against the Red Bulls in Wednesday night’s Hudson River Derby at Yankee Stadium.

He will be missing four key players, including three with injuries.

Sidelined for the match are defender Alex Callens (knee), midfielder Valentin Castellanos (quad) and forward Jesus Medina (hamstring), which he suffered in the 2-0 loss at the Philadelphia Union Sunday.

Defender Ronald Matarrita also is out after incurring a red card late in the match.
