Team Form

Philadelphia Union is in outstanding form, having won their last five MLS matches. They beat Sporting Kansas City 4–3 away, San Diego FC 5–0 away, FC Cincinnati 5–0 at home, Montreal Impact 2–0 at home, and New York Red Bulls 3–1 away. That’s 19 goals scored and only 4 conceded, highlighting their attacking firepower and defensive solidity.

Orlando City’s recent form is more mixed. Their last five results across all competitions: a 4–2 loss at New England Revolution, a 2–1 loss at Columbus Crew (Open Cup), then three consecutive wins — 3–0 at home to Toronto FC, 3–2 away at Atlanta United, and 1–0 at home to San Diego FC. The two away defeats suggest vulnerability on the road.

Historically, Philadelphia Union has enjoyed a strong home record against Orlando City, with 12 wins, 5 draws, and 7 defeats in 24 encounters at Subaru Park.

That series shows Orlando City can be competitive, but Philadelphia’s current momentum is a decisive factor.
