Seattle Sounders at Philadelphia Union 5/18/19 - MLS Picks & Predictions

There is a huge match coming up on Saturday, when the 2nd of each Conference will clash against one another in the MLS. Philadelphia Union have been tremendous this season and are just one point off the top of their respective Conference. Seattle have also been really great and are coming off a couple of great results.

Philadelphia Union (7-3-2) were somewhat lucky in their away match against Toronto and did win by an opponent own-goal, but it was still a win. And that was actually their third win in a row, as they are also undefeated in their last five (4-0-1). Philadelphia are still 2nd in the Eastern Conference with 23 points, just one behind DC United who have one more match. Philadelphia have also been great at home (5-1-0), scoring at least twice in each of their previous four. Seattle (7-1-4) have found their good form lately as they are now coming off back to back home wins against Orlando City (1-2) and Houston (0-1). They did go through a four-match win-less streak but are now undefeated in their last five (2-0-3). The Sounders have now climbed to the 2nd spot of the Western Conference with 25 points, two behind LAFC. They have been mediocre on the road so far (1-1-2).

Philadelphia Union have actually been great in this match-up in recent years, losing just once in the last five against Seattle (3-1-1). Moreover, they have never lost as hosts against Seattle (3-0-3) and can certainly extend that streak. Seattle have been great so far and even if they lose it won’t be by much.
