New England Revolution vs Philadelphia Union Predictions

• New England won 12 of their 17 home games this season
• Nine of New England Revolution’s last ten MLS matches have gone over 2.5 goals
• Both teams have scored in New England Revolution’s last ten MLS games

Hosts’ record on home soil key

New England Revolution were beaten 3-1 on the road against the Philadelphia Union in Game 1 of their play-off series but their home record is strong and they can bounce back with a victory in Game 2.

The Revolution took 40 points at home in the regular season, compared to just 15 on the road, and the Union lost eight of their 17 away matches in the regular season, including a 2-1 loss to these opponents recently.

With their struggles on the road and New England’s strength at home, the hosts are fancied to avenge their loss in the first matchup and send this best-of-three series to a decider.

High-scoring affair anticipated

These two teams are no stranger to a high-scoring affair, as proven by the 3-1 scoreline in their opening matchup of the series. Nine of New England’s last ten games have seen three or more goals and correct score backers should keep the faith in that trend.

Both teams have also netted in their last ten league matches so take the home team for a 2-1 win to keep the series alive.
