Los Angeles vs Philadelphia Union Prediction: Expect Some Drama

Los Angeles FC and Philadelphia Union make it to the finals as expected. Both teams were the best teams in the just-ended campaign and it comes with no surprises that both teams made it this far. Los Angeles FC managed to edge Philadelphia Union to win the Supporter’s shield a few weeks ago even though both teams ended on the same points. Philadelphia Union missed the shield and they have had their sigths on this MLS cup. Another loss to Los Angeles FC would be disastrous for the Philadelphia Union team, so they have no margin for error in this encounter.

Los Angeles FC

Los Angeles FC ended their last campaign on the top of the table and won the supporter’s shield narrowly against today’s opponents Philadelphia Union. Philadelphia played 2 matches in the previous rounds leading to this match. First they beat LA Galaxy 3-2 and then went on to beat Austin FC 3-0 in their last match. Cristian Arango and Kwadwo Opoku both found the back of the net in that match. Against Philadelphia Union, they can expect a trickier game of course because both teams have played out a draw in 3 of their last 4 meetings. 

Philadelphia Union were unfortunate to miss out on the Supporter’s shield but they have another shot at a trophy after a very brilliant season. Philadelphia Union also put up a well-deserved display in the previous rounds leading to this match. They beat FC Cincinnati 1-0 and then went on to beat New York City FC 3-1 last time out. New York City FC were first to draw blood in the 57th minute but Philadelphia Union responded in style in a matter of minutes, turning the game on its head and scoring 3 goals in succession.
