Union Philadelphia plays host to DC United at Subaru Park for this match in the MLS. The home team are in 2nd position with 30 points while the visitors are 13th position with 17 points. Union Philadelphia are just two points behind leaders New York Red Bull but have a game in hand. They will be looking for an immediate return to form as they have only won one of their last five matches with three draws and a loss. Union Philadelphia have built their success this season on their excellent defence with has only conceded 13 goals all season at an average of under a goal per game. They have only lost one of their last eight matches while their home record is even more impressive. Union Philadelphia are unbeaten in their last eight home matches with four wins and five draws.

DC United had a great 5-3 away win over Orlando City in their last match and will be hoping that this is the turning point of their season. Prior to this victory they went seven matches without a win, losing five and drawing two of the matches. This dismal run of results has seen them fall to joint bottom of the table but they have two games in hand over fellow strugglers Chicago Fire. DC United have the second worst defensive record in the league conceding 30 goals in 16 matches at almost two goals per match. They have only won one of their last five away matches although that win came in the last match on the road.
