Expert Betting Tips
Philadelphia Union used to dominate this fixture in the past, but in their current form, it’s a huge ask. It’s usual that Philadelphia Union are feeling gutted with their current struggles, they are a top team in the MLS and they would not give up the fight. It’s unfortunate they have not been able to turn things around sooner even after very good performances. For the Red Bulls, they are a good team but I don't think they are unbeatable, even for a struggling Philadelphia team. The Red Bulls are also not good away from home as stats tells us, so maybe we are seeing a Philadelphia Union turn around in this match. Philadelphia Union are obviously still good at scoring goals, let's hope they can stop conceding
