Philadelphia Union and New York City will lock horns in a league game on Saturday night at Subaru Park. Philadelphia Union are riding high in the Eastern Conference this season, sitting at the top of the standings with 63 points from 32 matches. However, the No. 1 spot is still up for grabs with the second-placed Cincinnati Reds sitting just four points behind them. The fourth-placed Inter Miami are also just seven points behind, having played two games less.
Interestingly, New York City is also firmly in the race to get a higher finish in the Eastern Conference, setting the stage for a do-or-die clash. They are third in the standings with 56 points from 32 matches. This means they are mathematically out of the running to take the Eastern Conference. However, they can boost their chances of grabbing the No. 2 seed with a win against Philadelphia. They'll also want to head into the postseason with a winning mentality.

Our Philadelphia Union vs New York City Prediction
As expected, Philadelphia Union will enter this game as the warm -127 betting favorites. They have been impressive in attack this season, scoring 56 goals with Tai Baribo leading the charts with 16 goals. In their latest league game, they showed no mercy to DC United, scoring six goals without giving up anything. However, they can sometimes be vulnerable, as demonstrated during their 7-0 drubbing against Vancouver this month. New York will present a stern test, winning four of their last five away games. The city dwellers also have a similar record in their previous five games all-time. They should go down fighting in a 2-1 or 3-2 win for Philadelphia.
Our prediction for Philadelphia Union vs New York City: Over 2.5 goals.
