Subaru Park sees Sunday action as Union take on Revs – 2:30am GMT.

This clash sees first placed Union, welcome ninth placed Revs to Subaru Park.

Philadelphia Union will be under pressure to remain top, going into the match

Union will hope to increase their wins in a row, having secured a 7-0 victory over D.C. United in their last match.

Also, a draw statistic of eight in 12 fixtures is not all bad, but unfortunately will not bring the success Jim Curtin’s men wishes for ultimately. They are the current League leaders with 33 points, that is, 0 wins, 0 losses and 0 draws.

Revs will have to defy the odds when they travel to Union, if they are to get anything out of the game. With Union having won five games and drawn five meetings this season at home, this is a huge ask.

As League leaders every game is crucial, so a victory would ensure that Philadelphia Union stay top, whilst maintaining pressure on their rivals.

New England Revolution have 25 points to their name, going into this tie

Revs will be buoyant, following a 4-2 away win against New York in their last fixture.

Also, with six draws in 10 games, Manager Bruce Arena has plenty to ponder, going into the next fixture, not least of which is how to get the wins he needs. With a ninth position in the league and 0 wins, 0 losses and 0 draws, they currently have 25 points in the League.

It must be a worrying prospect for Revs to go back on the road, with a bud run of away performances under their belt this season. So far they have only secured two victories, three darts, and four defeats to the home team.

A win in this fixture, would take New England Revolution’s points from 25 to 28, so far this season.
