With tough August schedules, tomorrow’s match means even more than usual to the Union and the Red Bulls.
Match previews
Preview: Union vs Montreal Impact
The Union were bullied by Sporting Kansas City and the Montreal Impact will have noticed. Can Philly adjust their open style of play as opponents look to beat them up? UPDATE: Michael Farfan out with groin injury.
Preview and tactics: Union vs Sporting KC
The Union want the cup. KC wants the cup too. Only one team can have it, which means Jack McInerney needs to remind SKC what a first half brace looks like.
Preview and tactics: Union vs TFC
Last time these teams met, it was the lowest point of the Union’s season. After a string of solid performances, can Jack McInerney lead Philadelphia to a much-needed trio of points?
Preview and tactics: Union at Galaxy
Pride and finishing are the keywords as the Union travel to LA to face the Galaxy.
Preview: Union at Dynamo
Will John Hackworth make changes against a Houston team that attacks with all the subtlety of a charging rhino? It’s possible, but it would signal a limit to Hack’s belief in the guys that have breathed fresh life into the Union.
