On the night from Wednesday to Thursday, at 3:00 Moscow time, Minnesota will meet with Philadelphia Union at Allianz Field Stadium. We are waiting for an interesting and scoring meeting.
"Minnesota"
Minnesota hasn't been in the best shape lately. In the past five meetings, the club has scored two victories - over Dynamo Houston (2-0) and over Austin (1-0), also played in a goalless draw with Dallas and lost twice (1:3 from DC United and 1:3 from Colorado Rapids). Thus, the club replenished its piggy bank by seven points, thereby retaining its position in the table of the West – seventh place.
Philadelphia Union
Philadelphia Union got a second wind. After losing in the semifinals of the CONCACAF Champions League from Mexican "America" (0:2), the Philadelphia team does not lose in six matches in a row – four wins and two draws. Thanks to this, the club rose to the third place in the Eastern Conference table, scoring 46 points in 29 matches. In the last meeting, Philadelphia Union broke up with a productive draw with Montreal (2:2).
Statistics and figures
- Minnesota has won two of the last five games;
- Philadelphia Union won three of the previous five games;
- "Minnesota" won two home matches out of the previous five.
Forecast
Bookmakers are more inclined to win "Minnesota" than the guests. We cannot clearly determine the favorite, since the clubs are from different conferences. It should be noted that "Minnesota" scores on its own field in eight of the last ten matches, while "Philadelphia Union" shows the same result, but only on the road. The most optimal bet for this meeting is OZ.
