Prediction: 1-0
Cincinnati
Buoyed by a 4-2 win over Orlando City, Philadelphia Union will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on FC Cincinnati on Sunday morning. The U’s produced a brilliant display in the season opener and they are likely to adopt yet another attack-minded approach against FC Cincinnati. The opposition back-line should have Israel attacker Tai Baribo, who scored a brace against the Lions, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Pat Noonan’s troops, on the other hand, defeated New York Red Bulls thanks to Kevin Denkey’s goal in their opener, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry in Sunday’s clash. As Philadelphia have turned their Subaru Park into a real fortress, we predict that FC Cincinnati are going to return home empty-handed. The likes of Hagglund, Kann, Miazga, Orellano, Sergio Santos, and Valenzuela miss out with injuries for the away team.
