It’s been a long season for both clubs and they seemed to have slowed down their tempo in the final stages of the season.

Unfortunately, they might need to get back to their best if they wish to compete in the playoffs. Philadelphia Union look like the better side because of their outstanding record against New England Revolution but their current form will be a huge factor if they will be able to take all 3 points from a struggling New England Revolution. With the current state of both things being considered, a low scoring game beckons which is likely going to end in a draw at full time.
