The Union face a different, much stronger, Chicago side then the one the defeated twice in May.
Match previews
Preview: Union at Vancouver Whitecaps
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?
Preview: Union vs Portland Timbers
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.
Preview: Union vs Chivas USA
Though they played well, the Union return from a tough road trip with only two points. They should earn more than that against a Chivas team that remains rudderless despite recent improvements under a new coach.
Preview: Union at Houston Dynamo
Nothing will change the ignominy or the lost points that have marred the Union’s last two performances except maybe a win in Houston.
Preview: Union at Real Salt Lake
Taking points away from Salt Lake city is one of the toughest tasks in MLS. Doing it without the league’s leading goalscorer is even harder. Philly will need to be fast and organizationally sound to pull off a coup in Utah.
