The first round of the MLS postseason playoffs will have Philadelphia Union facing off with Chicago Fire. Philadelphia will host the first leg this Monday, and the aggregate winner will meet Charlotte or New York City. Read on to find our prediction.
Eastern Conference top seeds Philadelphia will go into this match in a confident mood, having bagged three wins in the last four matches. They also dominated this fixture in the regular season, winning by an aggregate of 5-0.
An 18-game unbeaten run at home in all competitions backs up Philadelphia’s rating as favorite here. They won each of their last four home matches, keeping three clean sheets.
Chicago Fire had to get past Orlando City for this slot. They did so in convincing fashion, winning 3-1, and now they have a chance to avenge their two defeats in the regular season.
Their win over City marked a sixth unbeaten outing and a fourth win this run. It was more of a stroll as Hugo Cuypers grabbed a brace to add to Bryan Gutierrez’s opener.
By the time Orlando got their goal, it was a mere consolation. Their away form is checkered, but they posted five wins in their last 10 on the road. The last team to beat them on their travels was Philadelphia Union.
