Philadelphia Union and New England meet in a league game where both still have something to play for from here. The hosts sit 6th, six points behind their opponents, while New England are 3rd and propping up their own position. Philadelphia Union come home on an unbeaten run of five matches, but what must be admitted is that most of those wins were narrow victories, not thrashings of their opponents. New England arrive on a run of two straight wins, but the two games before that were poor defeats, so their defence is still not settled. If Philadelphia Union dominate the ball and push the game forward against a back line that concedes early in the second half often, the game should open up more and more. The first half may be tight and end with a close scoreline, but in the second half the hosts look likely to step up and pull away.
