Analysis Philadelphia

The home team comes to this stage of the MLS (Regular Season) after having eliminated Orlando City with a away win by (1‑3) in the previous round. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 23 goals scored and 23 conceded; against 10 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 35 goals scored and 17 conceded. For the league, Philadelphia Union won 20 points out of 30 possible points, after 6 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses in the last 10 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, since 7 of the last 10 for this competition have ended with Over 2,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 9 of their 20 matches for this competition, but have been able to turn the score around in 3. In the last 10 home matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 5 of their 11 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Pilhadelphia Union, which until then are the leader of the Eastern Conference of Major League Soccer, will seek three more points. The team may get those points, as their opponent are not very qualified and have not presented good football in the competition.They will play at home and the fans' support will be fundamental so that there is no error of the team, they have shown to be a very qualified and efficient team, they have everything to win this confrontation. However, the hosts are aware that they will not be able to take many risks because the second-placed is about to take the lead.
Philadelphia have as main goal to stay in the lead and go to the final. The team should play in this confrontation with a very offensive and explosive team, as losing points to teams from the bottom of the table and playing at home is not allowable, for a team that fight for bigger things in the competition. Coach Jim Curtin is expected to not count on the following players: Warren Creavalle, Olivier Mbaizo, Marco Fabian and Michee Ngalina.

Confirmed Lineup: Andre Blake, Kai Wagner, Jack Elliott, Raymon Gaddis, Aurelien Collin, Haris Medunjanin, Alejandro Bedoya, Marco Fabián, Brenden Aaronson, Fafà Picault, Kacper Przybyłko.
Coach: J. Curtin.

Analysis Orlando

The away team comes to this stage of the MLS (Regular Season) after a home loss by (1‑3) against Philadelphia Union. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 14 goals scored and 19 conceded; against 7 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 27 goals scored and 25 conceded. In the last 9 away league matches Orlando City has a record of 3 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 11 points out of 27 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (4 out of 9 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 6 of the last 9 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 18 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 11 times and have only turned the score around in 2.

Orlando City will face Philadelphia away from home and should go to the match with what they have of the best and most defensive, as they need to win if they want to move closer to the qualifying zone or even remain where they are. It will not be an easy confrontation, since their opponent is the leader of the competition and will play next to their supporters. 
Coach James O'Connor is expected to take to the field a very defensive team and will try to exploit the counterattacks as much as possible, as he is aware of the need to win. In their last showdown the team were defeated at home 1-0 by Los Angeles Galaxy, 1-0. O'Connor should set up a scheme in which he will not be defeated, try to at least seek a draw, and thus get closer to achieving his main goal, which is the qualification for the playoffs. Cristian Higuita will be out and João Moutinho is in doubt.

Confirmed Lineup: Brian Rowe, Kyle Smith, Alex De John, Shane O'Neill, Kamal Miller, Oriol Rosell, Carlos Ascues, Dillon Powers, Danilo Acosta, Benji Michel, Dominic Dwyer.
Coach: Ó. Pareja Gómez.
