Prediction: 0-2
Philadelphia Union
Cincinnati and Philadelphia Union go head to head at TQL Stadium in what is expected to be an interesting MLS game. Cincinnati aim to put an end to their five-game losing run, but given their shaky defence, home win should not be considered. Both Joseph-Claude Gyau and Maikel van der Werff are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The U’s, on the other hand, aim to retain third position in the Eastern Conference, and they should take advantage of Cincinnati’s poor form. Even though German defender Kai Wagner is banned for the visitors, away win should be considered as the hosts have been struggling at the back of late. In their last meeting in the Major League Soccer Philadelphia outplayed Cincinnati 3-0, and we predict that the history is going to repeat itself.
Highlighted Player (Haris Medunjanin):
After spending four seasons at AZ Alkmaar, Haris Medunjanin joined Spanish side Valladolid and he appeared in 42 league games for Pucela. The Bosnian midfielder played for the likes of Sparta Rotterdam, Maccabi Tel Aviv and Gaziantepspor in the past as well and in 2014 he returned to Spain, signing a contract with La Liga side Deportivo La Coruna.

Based in Chester, Pennsylvania, Philadelphia Union is an American soccer club that compete in Major League Soccer. The U have been participating in MLS since 2010, but they have yet to win the domestic trophy. Philadelphia welcome their opponents at Talen Energy Stadium, the venue that was opened on June 27, 2010 and current capacity of the stadium is 18.500.
