Vancouver is fourth in the West, but they average more points per game than Philly. Can Jack Mac regain his scoring form, or will current MLS goals leader Camilo help the Whitecaps maintain remain undefeated at home?
Philly’s only playoff season was built on the foundation of Fortress PPL. On Saturday, the 2013 team have a chance to prove they can defend their home turf against the best road team MLS.
