New England are coming off a goal-less draw in Montreal in their last match and continue to be really uninspiring with their performances. They will now return home for their next match, where they will lay host to DC United on Saturday. DC United are coming off a tough loss against Houston but were pretty solid prior to that.

New England (3-8-3) played a really physical match on the road against Montreal and the two teams ended up splitting the points in a goal-less draw. They have been struggling all season and have now won just once in their last six matches (1-3-2). New England are now sitting at the penultimate spot of the Eastern Conference with 12 points, just one ahead of Cincinnati.
DC United (7-4-3) took the lead in their away match against Houston but conceded twice and ended up losing by 1-2. However, they were in really good shape prior to that, as they had lost just one of their previous five matches. DC United are still sitting at the 2nd spot of the Eastern Conference with 24 points, just as many as Philadelphia above them.

The two teams exchanged home wins last season and DC United have dominated this match-up in recent years (6-2-3). However, it is New England who have been excellent as hosts against DC United in the past decade (8-1-5). But this season they are really struggling to create chances and DC United have Bill Hamid in a stellar season. Going with the Under 2.75 Goals here.
