Prediction: 1-2
Philadelphia Union
Audi Field will host the Eastern Conference encounter between DC United and Philadelphia Union. DC United failed to secure a playoff berth, but they will still be keen to end their campaign in style. The capital club will be without Badji and Fletcher through injuries, while Randall Leal faces a race against time to prove his fitness. Pride is all that is left to play for, yet the Black-and-Red will not go down without a fight in front of their fans.
Philadelphia Union, however, remain fully motivated as they push to retain top position in the Eastern Conference. After suffering a humiliating 7-0 loss to Vancouver, The U’s responded strongly with a narrow 1-0 triumph over New England thanks to Bruno Damiani’s strike. Although Tai Baribo is suspended, their squad depth ensures quality remains in attack. With higher stakes and sharper momentum on their side, we predict that the visitors are going to pick up all three points from Sunday's encounter.
