Philadelphia Union were really unlucky at the start of the season but they have found their footing lately. They are coming off back to back wins with clean sheets and will now look to hold their own when they will host FC Dallas on Saturday. FC Dallas have made a terrific start in the season with just a single loss in five matches.

Philadelphia Union (2-2-1) started the season with back to back losses and some really bad vibes. But they split the points against Atlanta and went on to record back to back wins against Columbus (0-3 at home) and Cincinnati (2-0 on the road) to get their season back on track. Philadelphia Union are now sitting at the 4th spot of the Eastern Conference with 7 points, just three points off DC United and the top spot.

FC Dallas (3-1-1) had a pretty easy job in their away match against Real Salt Lake last week. They took an early lead at the 1st minute while their opponents were left with 10 men at the 17th minute. It was all downhill from that and FC Dallas eventually won that match by 4-2. They have only failed to score in one of their matches so far and have kept just a single clean sheet. FC Dallas are currently 4th in the Western Conference with 10 points, in a triple tie with Seattle and Houston above them.

FC Dallas beat Philadelphia Union by an easy 0-2 at home last season, but Philadelphia won by 1-3 at home in the season before that. But that was their first win in this match-up (1-6-5). Matches in this venue have been pretty balanced (1-1-3) and I would expect a lot of goals in this match.
