Philadelphia Union welcomes Santos Laguna to Subaru Park for their Leagues Cup match. Philadelphia has won one and lost one of their Leagues Cup clashes so far and are expected to comfortably achieve victory when they face Los Guerreros. Santos Laguna is, to put it simply, in awful form. They've lost all three of their Liga MX games so far this season, as well as their opening two games in the Leagues Cup. Defeats against New York City and Chicago Fire have left Santos on zero points in the Leagues Cup standings, with only goal difference keeping them off the bottom of the table.

The Union hasn't enjoyed a particularly impressive season, either. Philadelphia is sat in 13th place in the MLS Eastern Conference, picking up just four league wins in 18 games. Union is, though, in reasonably good recent form, winning for of their last six scoring 14 goals in the process. Their form at home is especially impressive, winning the last four on home turf in all competitions.

This turn in form the The Union has helped us with our prediction for this game. It's really difficult to see Santos Laguna returning to Mexico with anything from this one. For our prediction, we're looking at a comfortable Philadelphia victory.

Our Philadelphia Union vs Club Santos Laguna Prediction

It's really tough to look past a home win in this one, and a comfortable one at that. While The Union hasn't enjoyed the best of seasons, their upturn in form has been impressive. Santos Laguna has endured a woeful start to their season and this is a difficult match to turn that poor form around.

So, a win for the Philadelphia Union is on the cards for us, we think there will be a few goals scored in this one too.

Our prediction for Philadelphia Union vs Santos Laguna is: Philadelphia Union to score over 2.5 goals
