New England

Let's start with the fact that Bruce Arena's guys showed themselves quite well in the group stage. The team scored a minimal victory over Montreal (1-0) and then drew twice.

This result helped New England qualify for the playoffs, but in the 1/8 finals the team lost to their future rival Philadelphia (0-1). The club had a lot of chances to score and could go further, but did not realize it.

“Revolution” will have the opportunity to take revenge on “Union” already in the domestic championship, because the team from Massachusetts is unlikely to have forgotten about this unfortunate defeat. In short, it will be hot on the field.

Philadelphia

Jim Curtin can be pleased with the performance of his players at the recent MLS is Back tournament, because the club did not lose a single match during the group stage and then started enchanting in the playoffs.

Philadelphia cleverly dealt with New England in the 1/8 finals (1-0), then confidently beat Sporting (3-1), but still stopped one step away from the final, as Portland was stronger (1-2). Considering the situation with the pandemic, this result can be considered good.

In the domestic championship, "Union" is fourth in the Eastern Conference, but the first place is not so far away, so there is something to fight for.

Prediction

Face-to-face meetings, as well as the recent tournament, once again showed New England to be a convenient opponent for Philadelphia. Bruce Arena's team is not able to impose a fight on the opponent and most likely the next fight will not be an exception.

In our opinion, Union players are better prepared and will perform with dignity again, so at least they will not lose.
